Trait costs are configurable in the mod menu or via xml. See the file "[RIMMSqol]\Defs\QOLTraitCostDefs\QOLTraitCosts.xml" for all the vanilla definitions. I do not plan to handle default trait costs from other mods. There is a mod that colorcodes traits based on power which can be used to load trait costs. Syr or something, it's a property in the general section of this mod. They might have values for those traits already.

The passions are tolerated by the editor. You can not affect the handling through xml or configurations.

Good info! tytyty
Unfortunate about passions tho understandable, it is handled well and no errors despite appearance of incompatibility. Maybe someday...

I HAVE FINALLY GET IT. im sure im not the only person here who had the same issue but regarding in the matter with "no skill" gene from VRE fungoid, and i suspect with other gene from VRE and/or modded gene such as alpha gene, not working . it was caused by this mod. i suppose if i really learn how to uses this mod i can probably fix it however at the very least i have isolated the problem. im not asking for a fix but for posterity sake im leaving this message here other can at least isolate the issue as i did. and not waste a whole afternoon turn off&on mods.
Btw i the reason im not posting this in the bug report cuz there's no error in the logs. but isolating down to just VRE fungoid & Rimmsqol. and also re-enable to my original 100+ modlist but not using Rimmsqol. im 99% sure there's Incompatibility between these two. and not my other mods.
