Sweet, thank you much for the advice. I noticed the commands to add a trait doesn't have a reverse option that I can find, is the only way to remove the added trait with an item?

Should do, there won't be any items to add them unless you make them though. Because of how classes work they're currently unmodifiable so you'll always have those traits no matter what you do with this mod so if you want custom classes the best way to do it is start with a Commoner and add all the traits you want via the mod

ah man this is awsome I've really wanted a trait buy system for custome class setups for awhile now. Its cool to have an option that doesn't just involve disabling class recipes.
Does this work with modded traits?

Works great. Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the heads up about that incompatability issue, the issue was on my end as the mod hijacks the game's Traits tab the original tab isn't rendered however depending on the order the game loads things additional tabs added by other mods could in turn be taken over by the default traits tab. I have now added a step to remove the original tab at the end of the loading process so it should be compatible with any mods that add more character tabs.
As for the issue of finding the trait items, I intend to properly balance the methods to find or even create the books when I put together a 1.0 version, for now the simplest method is to buy one from a Treasure Trader.

Hello, I really like the idea of this mod. We started using it on our server, but still noone has found the book.
General guestion: is this compatible with Level up (mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/11856)? I think we stopped seeing level up window after adding your mod.

EDIT: checked it out only with these two mods and yes, definately dont work together.

Arkhael That sounds really promising. Please keep this coming. It looks like this mod would fit both a modded and vanilla playstyle quite well. Imagine how much more of a progression it would give the game if you could not only find trait books like tinkerer and such, but also the likes of forager, soldier, hardy, etc. As I said, this looks pretty promising, and I hope you can bring these goals to life. To give a little example, we play on a server with Xskills and usually most people tend to use the commoner since you can already learn new skills with Xskills. But with an addition like that it would give even more progression till the endgame.

@dashr I'm glad you like it, that was part of my motivation but I mainly want to add to the game's exploration loop and give me a reason to start a world without ticking the box to unlock all recipes. I haven't ever played with Xskills but it does seem a good combination to test with and may give me more ideas. I'm itching a bit to add to this but getting my debug environment to work with the config loading and making the scrollbar for the traits menu took as long as the whole rest of the mod and tired me the hell out so I'm working on somethig else that should help with my understanding of the visual code stuff, so look forward to that being next giving this some polish.

Idk why I never thought of this but it's perfect for a server in combination with Xskills to allow additional progression. Thank you so much for making this :)
