Minor, But Annoying Issue Under 1.60.457293.1

This issue has been around for a while, but I finally got annoyed enough to post about it.

When you go into the Leaders screen the available leaders are displayed in a starting order (first screen snapshot below). However, when you select one (in this case I selected Jonny Pederz) the remaining leaders change the order in which they appear (second screen snapshot below). This is extremely annoying when, as in this case, I wanted to select the first 2 leaders, but I had to stop and see where the seccond leader was moved to.

Suggestion: Whatever logic you use to order the presentation of the leaders should result in the same sequence after one leader is selected.

Don't have to select them just leave that page at least I know when that slot is filled with a third leader they can shuffle again.

Is annoying as I tend to look at the third slot first when looking to see what the new one is.

Here is another annoyance with the Leaders screen:

The traits of the leaders sometimes change after you select one. The first screen snapshot shows the leaders before I select one. Note that Erik Herndez has the Peacemaker trait.

The second screen snapshot shows that, after selecting Leo Tyddui, Erik Herndez's trait has changed to Infamous. I would not expect a leader's trait to change just because I selected another leader. Also note that the Infamous trait icon is lower than the Peacemaker trait icon was.

The third screen snapshot shows that the trait(s) of the leader that I selected (Leo Tyddui) also changed. In the original list, Leo only had the Infamous trait, again in a lower position, but after selecting him, he now has 2 traits, adding the Focused trait in the upper position relative to the Infamous trait.

What is going on? Do these leaders actually have 2 traits, but one is being hidden for some reason? Please take a look at the logic for displaying leaders' traits because this kind of issue makes the game look buggy.

Here is a save file that you can use to replicate this issue:

After loading the save file, go to the Leaders screen and select Leo Tyddui. The traits for Leo and Erik Herndez should change.
