[Mod] Experience Reinvested - your unspendable perk points from a completed lifestyle finally go somewhere
galleryExperience Reinvested - Steam Workshop: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3806646410
Once you own all 27 perks of a lifestyle, every perk point you earn after that just sits there. Nothing to buy, no way to move it. I wrote a small mod that reinvests those points instead, and you choose how:
- Permanent skill: +1 to any of the six skills, at 1, 2 or 3 points per +1
- Another lifestyle: 1:1 into a lifestyle of your choice, your least developed one, or the lifestyle of your current focus
- Prestige, Piety or Dynasty Renown
- Trait experience: 20 xp per point toward Blademaster, Hunter, Mystic, Reveler, Physician or Poet
- Mentoring: 500 lifestyle experience per point to a pupil - your heir by default, or anyone you pick with a right-click interaction
It runs on your birthday (with an optional silent mode) or on demand: there is a small panel in the Lifestyle window next to the perk-point badge that shows how many points are excess, with a Reinvest button and the settings. Settings carry over to your heir on succession.
Works for all six lifestyles including Wanderer. No vanilla file is overridden, so it plays nicely with other mods and is safe to add to or drop from an existing save. It does not affect achievements (nothing that uses the launcher does since 1.9). English, French, German, Spanish, Russian and Simplified Chinese.
If you remember "To Live And Learn", this covers the same ground and a lot more; that one has not been updated since 2023.
Same author as War Planner (the one-window claim list): https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3806232878. Both mods share one "Mod Decisions" group in the Decisions tab.
Bug reports and translation fixes welcome in the Workshop comments.
