event codes

[khurjan]

hi there i was curious to know if there were event codes we could use most likely to help ai allies like france??? or if you playing as minor to make sure you dont stay on sidelines but have a say in the game??? as i played it as us and as sweden minor both as sweden i was sidelined for most of the game

I don't realy understand what you want. but it is possible to add self created events.

 

[khurjan]

well what i am looking for is codes for events already in the game so i can trigger them off earlier

enter "event xxxx" in the console (f12)

event 1110 , "Great War Manifestation" adds 5% WE for democratic nations, at 100% you can DoW


event 1150, "Successful Coup d'Etat - The Regime Falls"
you might be able to change you government through tihs event.

I see. Event files are in the HOI/DB/EVENTS folder, you can edit them with notebook or wordpad.

historic events

for sweden:
finish intervention:
event 3300
event 3301
else you have to wait for a high WE

the US has to wait until their WE is high enough (there are some historic events that raise the we)

speaking of swedish events. I tried to make one myself but the game complains about it. Maybe someone would take a look?

#########################################
# The Finnish Winter War - Swedish Direct Intervention
#########################################
event = {
id = 3300
random = no
country = SWE

trigger = {
war = { country = SOV country = FIN }
OR = {
ideology = liberal_conservative
ideology = paternal_autocrat
ideology = fascist
ideology = nazi
}
}

name = "EVT_3300_NAME"
desc = "EVT_3300_DESC"
style = 0

date = { day = 17 month = july year = 1936 }
offset = 7
deathdate = { day = 31 month = december year = 1947 }

action_a = {
name = "ACTIONNAME3300A" # Intervene for our brother people!
command = { type = warentry which = SWE value = 100 }
command = { type = war which = SOV }
command = { type = access which = FIN }
command = { type = trigger which = 3202 } # FIN
}
action_b = {
name = "ACTIONNAME3300B" # Send volunteers and materiel
command = { type = manpowerpool value = -10 }
command = { type = supplies value = -50 }
command = { type = trigger which = 3201 } # FIN
}
action_c = {
name= "ACTIONNAME3300C" # Take the chance to reclaim Finland!
command = { type = warentry which = SWE value = 100 }
command = { type = war which FIN
}
action_d = {
name= "ACTIONNAME3300d" # Who gives a fuck?!
command = { type = warentry which = SWE value = 100 }
}

}

#END

....
action_c = {
name= "ACTIONNAME3300C" # Take the chance to reclaim Finland!
command = { type = warentry which = SWE value = 100 }
command = { type = war which FIN
}

quick review (not tested):
there is a "}" missing in this line:

command = { type = war which FIN

should be

command = { type = war which FIN}

 

[Tayran]

Yeah, thanks. Stupid me missing that.

Now I got the scenario running without complains but when the even occurs the action_c, the one with war against Finland doesent work. I dont get a war. Why?

 

[Smiffus]

you're missing an '=' in there

 

[Maximilian I]

dunno, but I missed a "space" and a "=" (thanks smiffus) in my "correction"...


command = { type = war which = FIN }

Oh no, a mod thread has strayed into the general area. Cranial overload imminent


(((**@**)))

 

[Tayran]

Thanks, now it finally works!
