Charismatic Nature Perk as permanent self buff

Hello,

I am trying to make the Charismatic Nature Perk a permenant buff for the player in addition to the bonus effect it has to nearby players. However I am not sure what I need to change exactly. Comparing it with self buffing perks like Iron Gut I noticed a significant difference in code between the two. While Iron Gut (SlowMetabolism) has no own entry in the buffs.xml file, Charismatic Nature has its buffs as "passives" listed in the buffs file.

My guess is I have to transfer the listed passive effects of Charismatic Nature in the buffs.xml file into the progression.xml file, like Iron Gut has its effects declared as passive effects?

Would that work and can other player still benefit from the perk? I mainly play SP but it would be nice if other players could still benefit from this perk if I want to use the mod and play MP.

As mentioned I put all the <passive_effect> entries of the buffs.xml file into the progressions.xml file and deleted all remaining entries in buffs.xml. Also I deleted some entries in the progression.xml. It looks like this now:

All bonuses (+20 life/stamina, +20% dmg, +10% dmg red) are applied except the attribute bonus. For test purposes I added 'tags="attStrength"', in case a bonus to all attributes doesn't work.

Does anybody know why the attribute bonus entry is the one not working?

I couldn't get the attribute bonus to work as a passive in the progressions.xml. So I put all bonuses back into the buffs.xml and modified it and the progressions.xml as follows:

I added an additional 5th perk level for a bonus to all attributes. Level 4 only grants a bonus to perception and agility.
