Help with troubleshooting an event

[PyroAce2]

I'd like to implement a bit more variety in maiming injuries in my characters for roleplaying purposes. I've created 6 new injuries that would exist side-by-side with the maimed trait. Rather than rewrite every event that triggers a maiming, I tried to write a simple event that looks for a character with the maimed trait that does not already have one of my new injuries and then randomly applies one. This is what I came up with:

#Scarred
character_event = {
	id = 3200001
	desc = "EVTDESCACE3200001"
	picture = GFX_evt_melee
	
	trigger = {
		trait = maimed
		OR = {
			NOT = { trait = scarred }
			NOT = { trait = one_eye }
			NOT = { trait = one_leg }
			NOT = { trait = one_arm }
			NOT = { trait = neckslit }
			NOT = { trait = burned }
		}
	}
	
	mean_time_to_happen = {
		days = 1

	}
	
	option = {
		name = "EVTOPTAACE3200001"
		
		random_list = {
			50 = {add_trait = scarred }
			11 = {add_trait = one_eye }
			13 = {add_trait = one_leg }
			15 = {add_trait = one_arm }
			10 = {add_trait = neckslit }
			1 = {add_trait = burned }
		}
	}
}

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be firing. I have two characters in a save game that are maimed and neither one picks up any of the new traits after a month. Any reason why this would not be working?

If you pick a character from the game that is maimed and fire the event through the console (alt+21 ---- event 3200001), what happens then?

Did you add you event with a a "weight" to the modifier on the common/on_actions.txt file?

I assume you already have the traits in the Traits text file?

I don't see a reason why the event wouldn't trigger.

You might want to change the trigger to the easier to type version

		Not = {
			OR = { 
				trait = scarred 
				trait = one_eye 
				trait = one_leg 
				trait = one_arm 
				trait = neckslit 
				trait = burned 
			}
		}

I went ahead and adopted this formatting - the other was allowing the events to fire repeatedly until every maimed character had every single trait. Not what I was going for, I assure you! Haha.

At any rate, it seems to be working now. Thanks for the help both of you!
