I wrote text.csv but wanted to say event.txt. That as because I just added the eventname and so.

Re: Re: Re: event in an existing game
You're right...I went and tested that, and you're right. Very strange. I've had new events pop up when I loaded a saved game - my theory is that these were changed events using the same number, which I have a habit of doing. So the game didn't notice that the details were different, only that the ID was on its approved list. Go figure.

I have a problem with some events I'm scripting.
They don't fire when they are supposed to trigger, but when i save, quit and reload, they trigger all of a sudden.
How do I get them to trigger when they are supposed to (in this case, when they end a war with a nation)?

Could you post the events? It's a bit hard to find anything when we haven't got a clue about how the events look. Post them in a new thread
Oh... something I discovered... an event will not fire if it is trying to remove a building that does not exist. (IE trying to remove a tax collector from a province that does not have one.)
The events.txt file is only read when a new game is started; all the individual event files are listed in the savegame and re-read when the save is loaded so new events added to existing files will be available.dharper said:

Changing events.txt will not work (see my reply to dharper). If you don't want to modify an existing event file you need to add the name of the new event file to the savegame in the list of event files near the end of the file; starts with event = "db\events\major_akk.txt".stapper said:
For some reason the program must weird out if a tech group's name is the same as a religion name. I can't understand why, but then, I'm not a C++ programmer.dharper said:You're probably right. That's the only techgroup error I've ever seen, so I extrapolated from it. I'll change it so I don't mislead anybody.
Thanks for pointing that out!
i got a lot of lhs error messages und 'unknown data defined in database' errors but the funny thing is, i get these errors not only for my own events but also for original events (e.g. the fuggers with id = 366301) where i changed nothing.
Thanks for the hard work dharper, these details save others hours. I have Havard's guide near the top of my bookmarks.
Major thread necromancy here. There is no original event with that number so I assume you are playing some mod. There are probably bugs in the mod in addition to whatever you are adding. Also, a bug in one event (especially missing braces) will frequently cause error messages that refer to later events.chefkoch said:
