Using Leader Trait as Civilization Trait

[Craig_Sutter]

I have been trying (and failing) to use Victoria's Pax Britannia trait as a Civilization Trait for my Denmark Civilization (Great Heathen Army). That is the trait she has that cities on other continents (conquered or founded) generate a melee unit. I cannot seem to get it to work... either I am doing something fundamentally wrong with the set up of my code (possible) or the modifiers for a Leader trait cannot be migrated to a civilization trait. I have changed all of the relevant entries from TRAIT_LEADER_PAX_BRITANNIA to TRAIT_CIVILIZATION_GREAT_HEATHEN_ARMY and associated all of the modifiers (afaik) to the new trait copying Victoria's entry. I get a crash to the main menu though. I have previously succeeded in applying a civilization trait to another civilization, so I have an idea what I am doing... but I cannot figure out my failure here.

Am I attempting the impossible?

Sounds to me like you missed adding something(or a typos causing the game not to see it) to the database. That what the kick back to Main menu usually means. Did you check the Database.log and or Modding.log?

I checked the logs but I am confused by them... Not as easy to figure as Civ V logs. Were obviously some problems, but seemed to be a cascade so could not pinpoint the problem. Am going to start frim scratch.

But I can use leader traits as civ traits?

Post your Logs and code if you happy for ppl to see it unfinished(you can PM it if not). Or pop on to Discord.

BTW use notepad ++ to view the logs with, it formats them correctly, where notepad/wordpad does not.

Thank-you... using notepad helped a lot.

And I found the errors... turns out not just TraitType needs to be a unique name, but also ModifierId. At least, I think that is the reason for my errors... making ModifierId got rid of the errors... but only playtesting will tell ultimately.
