Good mod, well done.

Paradox changed a few things with how events are written so it took me a while to look up and figure out how things have changed. As far as I can tell everything is working fine but if you encounter any issues leave a comment to let me know.

it's testament to this mod that you havent had a comment here since last MAY, but every time I have looked at the most popular mods during that period, you have been on the first few pages. Elegant. Useful. Bug-free.

@CaliBlueBear
If you have the trait it converts it since they are direct opposites. If you don't have the trait though it simply adds it as a new trait.

Do you have to have the chaste trait to convert to lustful? Or can you just read a book and add lustful to the traits your character has already? Same with gregarious -- do you need shy first?

Thank you for the gardener trait and for updating :-)

@CaliBlueBear
With the 1.9 update almost every mod should be achievement compatible. I've had this mod in and I've had no issues getting achievements.

Achievements compatible?

@child_of_air
I've added the Gardener trait as an option.

I'd love for you to add gardener and also hunter

can you add more basic traits too please?

Description looks good in the workshop thumbnail gallery now.

I hear you with the descriptions, I know from my own mods that the text weight is huge even for simple things like modifiers and don't get me started on how much is needed for memories with the first, second and third person perspectives

@Lost Nomad
I had planned to add books for pretty much every trait but writing a unique description for every book is quite an undertaking. You can see I made a bit of a start converting bad traits to good and good to bad. I haven't played CK3 for quite a while though so adding more books kind of fell to the wayside.

You make a fair point about the description. However something like the version number is something I consider very important since CK3 has no version tags. So having the version right at the top and eye catching is ideal. However perhaps I should just nix the sentence about it being compatible with future versions. People typically don't use out of date mods anyway.

Now for your mod, I lie the concept of the books changing traits. Which brings to mind a question asked of me earlier today, whcih was whether any mod allows a player to guarantee any of the guardian's education events so they could ensure a certain trait was given to their ward.

That seems perfect for your mod, so you could add some education manuals, for example Idiots Guide to Humanities to apply something like Compassion and remove Callous. Or something like Idiots guide to Making Friends to apply Gregarious and remove Shy.

Just a thought.

Just a heads up, nothing important.

I suggest on your workshop page you move the version paragraph down to where your language paragraph is.

The reason being that when anyone hovers their mouse over your mod's image in any of the lists on the workshop front page over the image, all they see is your version blurb which is not important and a couple of lines about what your mod actually does, which is the important part.

So if you reorder the paragraphs people will see more of what your mod actually is. Tidy up your shop window

@FrozenSnowFox
Bruh I've literally never uploaded any mod and have no idea how to do so. If you would like to include my translation in the mod it would be way easier I reckon. As far as I know you just need to place the localisation file I send you under localization folder of your mod, like right next to the "english" folder and that's it. I've sent you a friend request if you don't mind I can DM you the file?

@edmundz1998
Thank you for taking the time to make a translation. If you tell me how to add the translation then I can. However if you prefer you could simply upload the translation yourself. That way you can easily maintain it without always having to rely on me to update things.

Hi I managed to make a Chinese translation. Do you mind adding it to the mod?

I like this!

I hadn't thought of those but that might not be a bad idea. It's going to take me quite a while to write flavour text for all of this stuff though.

Mystic or wise, I would definitely want it.
Have you considered reading books to learn the military qualities of siege, recklessness, or expert of the plains?

Small update I added Chaste and Lustful traits as books. You can gain the traits or change one of them into the other. I'll probably do the other traits too because I rather like the idea of being able to change your personality somewhat which is otherwise set in stone for life. Due to RNG or crappy parenting there's a good chance you won't get traits you want on an heir that could make for some interesting roleplaying.

@Ghost!
Books in general as inventory items is a definite no. It's just far too easy and there's too many. However I could maybe see about adding an option to discover a rare book which acts as an inventory item. I was considering maybe adding some temporary buff books but that remains to be seen. Right now I'd like to add some more trait books.

@PENG
I'm glad you like my mod. I'm afraid translations will come if or when people want to do them.

Will you make it so the books will be inventory items in the future? Perhaps they could be ultra rare to get so you don't clog up your inventory but they'd give some small but nice bonuses?

Perhaps add books that has a small chance to increase education trait or give lifestyle XP?
Good mod otherwise!

Good mod！now I can learn to get possessed and become an herbalist.Chinese would be better,because I do badly in English.These words are machine translated.

Okay it's done, I did a complete redesign of the mod. Books are now separated into different sections and given names. Purchasing a book gives a popup of flavor text explaining how you enjoy its content. I also added the Lunatic and Possessed traits as books.

While I think I did a reasonable job with the flavor text I'm not entirely pleased with some of them, particularly Cannibal and Witch. I may see about updating them or changing them in the future a bit. I'll also likely add some more books in the future.

@Henry Plantagenet
Since I enjoy writing I kind of want to do it myself but I'd love to chat, get some feedback and maybe collaborate. Can you ping me on the discord? I use the same username there as I do on steam.

Hey, I'm an event writer for several teams and I'd be happy to write the flavor text for the book events

After messing around today and getting some help from the discord I'll be doing an update in the future. At that point selecting a book will give you another window which talks about you reading the book. So you'll get some flavor text instead of it just ending silently.

@PENG
It should I tested them all extensively. Although I should probably add an extra dialogue or toast to tell the player "this happened". I'm new to modding CK3 so it's a bit of a learning experience.

When I click on resolution, nothing happens.

I'm also considering adding in the ability to get traits like Athletic, Journal Writing and maybe stuff like Physician and Mystic. Although considering their utility they'll probably be priced higher.
