Gwen’s Simple Traits 1.6.1
1) 41 new traits many with up to 5 levels and negative versions of each.This adds a total of over 300 traits to the game. I suggest also looking at my Zero Cost traits mod that adds over 50 unique traits to the game.

2) Without touching the core AI personality files I have made it so that the AI personalities spawn when using traits with similar effects to the vanilla ones that they require.
A lot of the math I use is based on the fact that adaptability and strong double in cost as their effects double. This leads me to cost things in increments based on 50% of their in game value.

fixed other species happiness traits to be more impactful given I didn’t realize they changed how the modifier works. they are noew 1 to 3 and -1 to -3. and provide bonuses in increments of 5.

Turned off positive versions of the consumer goods reduction trait until i can know for sure if its granting a positive bonus to mineral production. This will not affect save games as I simply turned the traits off from selection.
