Event Tree

[flyting]

I have been following the Eep for some time now, and i see that there a a lot of event, lot of those event have very special triggers, for example domestic. to make those events work you have to go to the file for that nation and look it up when things are going to happen, what events follow on my choise want event i don't get if a choise A. It would be nice ij we would have a tree for the countries which tell them what event will take place, when, what are the trigger, and what events go to sleep with what choise and what events do i trigger. it is something of a index for the events of a country so i can so what event when could happen and what are the trigger. What about such a tree?

Sounds like a lot of work to me. Even more than making the EEP work for 1492 and 1617 (which I think are more important projects).

You want a map to make sure you get the "right" events? Wouldn't that spoil the fun?

no, becase in real life you can expect wat is going to happen, and what further stap will be, but here you don't know want event will follow if you chose a or b. Besides if i want something to accomplish i can propose a idee, now this can be done by event but i have to know want start that event so i can make it happen, inheritance should niet be in the tree, and other event that are trigged just by date, but event like you have to know a couple of provinces, like i'm byz and i want to expend, so where do i attack, with the tree you can see that you have to conquer a couple of province to gain the Renaissance. That is something i real life you can do, by conquering that special provinces i make know to the outside world, that i'm the byz empire. such event where the trigger is depandable from a decesion from the player. that way.

I tend to agree with Havard & Isaac Brock. I think such a tree would ruin some of the surprise for a player. I'm thinking of creating some events that deliberately "fool" the player (i.e. they choose B thinking it will avoid a problem, only to create a worse problem later on). I think part of the fun of EU2 is learning the different ways of playing a given country.

I also agree that it would be a lot of work, & while it would be possible to create such a tree, I agree that making the EEP 1492 & 1617-compatible ought to be a higher priority.
