Death By Old Age

[TheLand]

Event 3800, Death By Old Age.

The Mean Time To Happen for this event is months=3600.

This is 300 years.

Eventually the modifiers for old age bring it down to 2 years for characters over 80. However the MTTH is about 20 years for age 70-80.

I strongly suggest you have messed up, and added an extra zero to the MTTH.

And there was I wondering what an 89-year-old was doing as Navy Prefect.

I think all the MTTHs in that file are too high by a factor of 10 except for the insanity events which seem appropriate as they are.

Reported, thanks.

On reflection I think that the base events of the various series (except death By Old Age) are fine as they are. 9000 months (iirc) for a character to become Stressed is about right.

However the consequential events are, I think, out by a factor of 10.

Another clear bug.

Event 3803, Death By Suicide for Shamed People:

trigger = {
		num_of_children = 1
		popularity = 0 
		age = 16
	}

So any character, with children, and a popularity greater than zero, is liable to suicide.

I would suggest that what you meant was more like:

trigger = {
		num_of_children = 1
		not = { popularity = 10 }
		age = 16
	}

What's the range of popularity values? Is it 0-10, or 0-100, or what?
