Idle Traits Removal

Description
This simple mod removes the randomly generated traits your generals receive just for being garrisoned in a settlement.

I can understand developer’s intentions (to stimulate player’s activity and to provide some counterbalance to the positive public order effects of garrisoning) but in practice these bad idle traits are purely annoying. So much annoying it forced me to make this mod. I’m not a veteran modder but because the mod works for me I decided to upload it for others.

With this mod there shouldn’t be any of these idle traits generated. No more Procrastinator, Foul Mouthed, Untrustworthy or other idle traits ruining your generals the very next turn after capturing a settlement :)

The purpose of this mod is to change the game mechanics as little as possible so besides the above mentioned idle traits no modifications of other traits or game elements was made.

Compatibility
Should be compatible with all DLCs. Also save game compatible (you don't have to start a new game in order to use this mod).

Most probably not compatible with other mods modifying the characters' traits or skills (or their triggers).

Please report any bugs you encouter.

my game caps at 39 mods before character bodyparts and faces disappear entirely. just floating hair and armor on horses. the one thing i hate about rome 2 is the mod cap before textures breaks, Attilla though 100+ mods no issues, or warhammer 300 mods no issues.

if you have more than 35 your textures will not function

I have a few of my own mods and about half a dozen to improve QoL. None of which affect the files which would cause textures/UI to disappear

dax do you have more than 35 mods enabled

Causes textures to disappear on both units and UI which is extremely odd.
I've tried finding the cause in the .pack file but can't see the issue.

As such, this mod technically works but ruins gameplay.
Recommend to activate, load file to remove bad traits, then deactivate and resume play.

For some reason, this causes soldiers' bodies to be invisible when active for me. Anyone have an idea what could be causing it and what to do?

For those asking about whether or not it works with DEI, I've been using it with pretty much every playthrough and it works fine. The mod is loaded before all the DEI mods.

Does the AI still have a chance to get idle traits, or is this mechanic only for the player?
