Traits preview.png

Traits personalize and add flavor to your colonists by granting a wide variety of special bonuses or conditions to their day to day activities, and so encourage more complex player-conceived stories based on those individual characters. Traits provide physical or psychological abilities or limitations, likes/dislikes, behavior tendencies, personality quirks, and so on. Some are beneficial, some are harmful to the colonist or your colony as a whole. Some are constant, some only rarely triggered. Some can be more or less easily negated or manipulated to your advantage by catering to them (or denying them), others are more problematic or outright dangerous.

Mechanics

General traits

These traits are generalized into groups, organized roughly by topic but there are no such groupings laid out formally in the game. There are no relations or prohibitions between traits grouped together here unless noted (e.g. a colonist cannot be both "ascetic", wanting a minimal bedroom, and "jealous" of those with better bedrooms).

Spectrum traits

Theses are groups of related traits, that are inter-related and grouped by degree, creating a "spectrum" of good/bad/better/worse in that specific sphere of behaviour. A colonist can only have one trait from any single related spectrum for these traits, defining whether they are notably outside the norm for, for example, movement speed, or drug interest, or their physical (un)attractiveness.

Drug desire

These traits affect a colonist's likelihood to consume drugs.

Note that despite the common misconception, chemical fascination and interest pawns no longer randomly go on drug binges independent of mood.

Name Description Effect
Chemical fascination NAME is utterly fascinated with chemical sources of enjoyment. Consuming recreational drugs will create a good mood, while abstaining will lead to increasing frustration over time and possibly drug binges. S/He will ignore directives to not use recreational drugs, and will consume more than a normal person. Has Chemical need, mood buff (up to +6) when satisfied and mood debuff (up to −12) when not

Function as if "Take for Recreation" and "Take for Addiction" are checked on the Drug Assignment tab regardless of the players choices. They will otherwise follow the Drug Policy regarding drugs carried and scheduled.

NOTE: The colonist will still respect allowed areas and will not use forbidden stacks of any drug regardless of chemical need

Content added by the Ideology DLC Unaffected by ideoligious prohibitions that would ordinarily prevent a pawn from taking or administering drugs

Chemical interest NAME has an unusual interest in chemical sources of enjoyment. Consuming recreational drugs will create a good mood, while abstaining will lead to increasing frustration over time and possible drug binges. S/He will ignore directives to not use recreational drugs, and will consume more than a normal person. Has Chemical need, mood buff (up to +3) when satisfied and mood debuff (up to −6) when not

Function as if "Take for Recreation" and "Take for Addiction" are checked on the Drug Assignment tab regardless of the players choices. They will otherwise follow the Drug Policy regarding drugs carried and scheduled.
