traits rework

[toebymaguire]

Hello! I am really enjoying this game so far and love how much detail goes into the survival mechanics. One of my favorite things are the traits in character creation. My suggestion is to rebalance some of the traits, high thirst, smoker, overweight etc. These traits are almost just free points when creating your character, and I think that this takes away from the idea of traits in the first place. An example of this might be to make overweight take longer to get rid of, or making the endurance loss/ chance of injury even worse. As for smoking, maybe increasing the amount of times you need to smoke or scarcity of cigarettes. I know a lot of thought goes into these traits already, just some thoughts I was having.

I'm sure the Mods will get around to rebalancing again, traits already change slowly overtime as the game evolves.

Until then you may look into modding, I know there are a couple mods involving traits already, although usually they make the game easier.
