the allowed_archetyp thing is impleneted, just that there are 2 versions of each trait, one for bio and liothoid and one for robot/machines. but it looks like it doesnt help

No because the fix doesnt do anything, and the guy didn't send me anything ^^

Um, was the mod fixed now?

@Snow27 yo send me for sure :) Thank a lot

Hey mod author, to fix machines not being able to pick these traits change "allowed_archetypes = { BIOLOGICAL LITHOID }" into "allowed_archetypes = { BIOLOGICAL LITHOID ROBOT MACHINE }" if you're too lazy to change this all by hand, then I suggest using the replace feature in notepad++ to do it for you, if you are even lazier still, I have already made a working version of the file and will send it to you if asked

Hey, can you upload a version of this for 3.14?

is this ironman compatible i typed in ironman traits and found this

@CptBlitz someone as already found the bug for machine pop decline it on BM King trait point fix

Yep this pop decline problem is annoying, however, if it helps I think the problem is something in the coding for gestalt consciousness ethics. Since if you play machines that are not under that ethic then the problem does not appear or show when using the traits.

Very strange that non gestalt consciousness machine races can use the traits fine but ones that are GC get the bug. So maybe looking at the code there will help?

Yes, but there should be a version of them for machines if you select machines :)

The problem is somewhere else in the new code, and can't figure it out, sorry

@Deep_Dark is right, got the same problem, was going out of mind to understand the problem, found out it was this mod becouse after saving a new species and closed the game, after lunching again while selecting the species says "can't use this trait becouse required mammal or lithioid"

I am experiencing the bug that causes machine empire's pops to drop if they are using these traits. I even confirmed it by running it as the only mod.

I don't mean to cause any sort of grief, just wanting to make sure your aware the bug persists!

I like to play this game as more of a Roleplaying sort of things, so i often used this mod to have more freedom in making the Specie i want without having to bother with too many unwanted negative traits(I still use those, but for flavor/theme), so i hope it is fixed soon!

Trait picks are not added by traits. You need to change that somewhere else

@Hann3o So no chance of adding a set of added picks so only the player gets those?

I don't want to be misleading. I didn't try to play only with this mod, so maybe one of the other mods in my playlist caused interference with this mod resulting with the issue in question. However, the problem was solved when I disabled this mod in my playlist.

This is so weird dang it :( I added category = machine, that should've solved it but nah

Sadly, I'm still getting the machine pop drop issue. I have a modded playset but just disabling this solves the issue for now. Great mod tho, I'd be glad if it could be fixed.

Should be fixed now :)

This mod seems yo be causing machine races to have constantly dropping population when any of the trait point traits are chosen.

Nevermind seems to be a newish 4.0 bug (multiple bug reports on Paradox Forums), and very sporadic

In 4.0 I'm running into an issue with this mod - specifically, if a leader has multiple level ups (e.g. console cmd skills, or multiple agendas run via unity with statecraft) the level up process gets messed up. E.g. if starting level is 1, and you do "skills 6" it locks out leader trait and specialization choices, and in a game I just played the statecraft level ups resulted in skipping destiny trait picks when going from level 6->9/10 on various leaders.

Any idea whats going on?

4.0 please

@Hann3o How about adding a few that add to picks as well? I am running out of picks when adding points.

Whenever I use these extra traits on mechanical pops they decline and then *poof* dead empire, so that's just a heads up for robotic empire players.

so this isn't showing up for me at all

Ye damn they changed the trait category thing, maybe needs a seperat version for robots, cyborgs

For whatever reason, If i use this for robot pops, it kills them off over time and refuses to grow them until I take the extra points off

still works for 4.*.*

so u have plans for a 4.0 update?

@Tahu-Umbra You can change that yourself with a mod very simple. Make your own script in common/species_archetypes/yourname_species_archetypes.txt (see the main game what to edit)

@BIIKERHOTLINE Doenst work over traits :) Would have to be a technologie etc.

Any plans to do same but for civic points?

is there a trait limit increase to go along with this?

Weird I havent had heard of this yet. I will try to test it on my end. Could be a mod conflicting

First, I love your trait mods!

I do have an issue though. I can run 1 of your Trait Mods with a few others (from other authors) but as soon as I run more than 1 of your trait mods I lose all but 1 of yours. It's also random as far as I can tell.

Last game I ran I used Cool Machine Traits, OP Traits and Trait Point Traits.

They loaded up just fine at game start. I made my race and played for a while.

On reload of game, OP Traits poofed from my Species.

Removed OP Traits and started over.

On reload the Trait Point Traits poofed from my Species.

I'm just curious if anyone else has had such an issue.

To be fair, I've completely uninstalled Stellaris and nuked all Paradox Files and Game Save Data repeatedly because there are other mods I just can't install anymore, they always download with the missing descriptor file issue.

Once again, love your work!
Thanks to anyone that can provide any info for me.

I also hope that the trait slots can be increased. Does anyone know which mod in version 3.14 can achieve this?

@Cepheus Talks Updated with 1, 2, 3, 4 Trait points

can you add a 2,3, and 4 option as well?

@Universe You are welcome my friend :)

Good job keeping the mod upto date

Can you add one for two points and one point?

@♥Ares♥, unfortunately, I don't believe that this is possible. As traits can only affect the amount of available trait picks after empire creation.

Would like to see a Trait pick mod from you.

@Ivory F, how did you do the trait picks? I'm still confused on that one.

@Gadg8eer The image is grabbed from google search and probably was AI generated, atleast it looks like that^^

@Boshty You can also change the species_archetypes files and make your own mod. Than you don't even need traits. But, then the change also applies to any AI empire :)

@Hann3o Hi! This might be a weird question, but where did you find this thumbnail art? I'm just curious, it looks really cool.

however this is even lazier than typing the command, so this mod wins :D

theres a console command to just add more points tho

Oh ok :) Glad it works now for you
