The traits marked by a * are using an event which check at game start, when you modify your species and once a year that your main species still possess the trait. These traits apply to the whole empire.
Hateful, Violent, Aggressive, Extremely Aggressive, Competitive, Belligerent and Sociable traits gives opinion modifiers, like Charismatic and Repugnant do in vanilla.

You're right, but we modified the trait (from memory, the trait gives 10% to each science) when it was changed to give a bonus to each science instead of just Society.
So it's not exactly the same, we have to put it here. :)

Hey, these all seem great but i have one concern, advice maybe, i'd make robots not have morale.

Granhyt  [developer] 1 Jan, 2020 @ 10:01am 
They damage the enemy morale, it's not their own. Robot armies, as Xenomorph armies, don't have morale.

Is there a system by which you've decided on the trait IDs for these? Trying to set up a game with my friend and can't fit in the traits wanted for our rival species.

All traits are called "trait_additrait_name". For example, "trait_additrait_planetary_designers" or "trait_additrait_easily_distracted". For robots, "trait_additrait_rusty_antiquities" or "trait_additrait_multithreading".
There is one trait with an alternative version for lithoids : "trait_additrait_ephemeral_lithoid".

how does the influence =20% work? what figure is it modifying for influence? the total monthly income of influence, or something relating to faction influence, or what?

The total monthly.

Why is Sociable incompatible with Charismatic? Seems like they'd be a good fit to me, actually.

It was done this way because they both increase other empires opinion of you. As a rule, we tried to avoid the stacking of bonuses with traits.

Hi! A question and a note:

Note: Avantage probably should be spelled Advantage (American English)

Question: How do traits that apply to the empire work? For example, how does the trait "Living Ships" apply to the empire's ships? Is it based on the species leading the empire, or something else?

I like most of the traits, but it feels odd to me that some don't really apply to the species, but instead apply to the empire which might be composed of many species.

Granhyt  [developer] 22 May, 2022 @ 10:48am 
You are right, it's Advantage. There may be a few others typos, as English isn't my native language, but I try to correct all of those which are reported to me.

Empires traits are based on the dominant species, which usually is the founder species, unless the founder species disappear from your empire.
Some of these traits are more culturals and many of those are a bit closer to traditions and/or origins but when this mod began, at the game release, there was neither traditions nor origins.

Now, when new traits are added to the mod it's usually ones which can be created relative to the species and not the empire, but there is still some of these old traits running around in the galaxy, still nice to use as a player, but giving nothing to empires they haven't founded.

PS : I'm relatively sure than pioneers and rooted are once again bugged. I'll have to fix this once I find the new new new new new name for the modifiers.

Thanks! Aren't the constant code updates fun? :)
