Dynamic Lifestyle XP Redux
This is an updated / rebalanced / forked variant of the Dynamic Lifestyle XP mod originally by Adrei, as it is presently out of date in semi-significant ways. All credit goes to them for the original code. If for whatever reason they want me to remove the mod from the workshop, I will.

In general, this mod now takes your character stats into consideration when calculating xp generation for lifestyles. So for example, now having a higher martial skill contributes to gaining more martial lifestyle xp than a character of lower martial skill. It also allows free shifting between lifestyle focuses, without any cooldown time.
This version also features some tweaks to the balance of the original mod, just of my personal preference. It notably includes a slight learning contribution to xp calculation for all other lifestyles, the original mod didn’t feature this.
In general, with the way I have this balanced, you’ll see characters (both AI and player) churn through more lifestyles as they reign for long periods of time. I just like to see lifestyle trees get progressed through more in general. This also makes long ruling rulers a little bit more significant as they accumulate more perks, traits, and stats. I’ve also made a "lite" version of this mod that features weaker xp gain than this version. You can find that version here:

Additionally this includes the readdition of new modifiers introduced since the T&T DLC that Adrei’s original version overwrites and omits due to it being out of date. It also includes built in integration for lifestyles added by other mods including:
Lifestyles Expanded – Prowess
Witchcraft
Elder Kings 2
Roman Lifestyle
Supernatural
More Lifestyles
If there’s another mod that adds lifestyles that you’d like built in integration for, let me know and i’ll try my best to incorporate it.

Comparing the XP gain:
With a character with a level 3 education and 15 in the same attribute of that education, over 20 years you can expect:
Vanilla – ~8 perk unlocks with no ramp up in rate of xp gain
Dynamic Lifestyle XP Redux – ~15 perk unlocks with a stronger ramp up in rate of xp gain
Dynamic Lifestyle XP Redux (Lite) – ~10 perk unlocks with a weaker ramp up in rate of xp gain

Incompatible Mods:

Other than that, that’s all. Thank you to anyone who downloads this. This is also a very simple mod in code, and should in general survive most, if not all, future updates to the vanilla game with little to no issue.
