How to write persistent events ?

[makif130289]

hi, I wrote an event for my mod project ( using AoD 1.07 and IC ) but it doesn't fire for AI. I think that I am not using persistent feature correctly. May anyone tell me that how to write events that will fire for all countries and also persistent ?

This is the event I wrote :

#############################
## Embargo Event
#############################
###
event = { 
	id = 150001
        persistent = yes
	random = no


        date = { day = 22 month = march year = 2003 }
	offset = 2
	deathdate = { day = 30 month = december year = 2030 }


	trigger = { 

                     random = 50
                     flag = USA_ORDER 
                     local_flag = NO_EMBARGO


               OR = {
      
                  AND = {
                            
                      national_idea = { country = -1 personality_string = policy_identity_frustrated } # revisionism
                            

              OR = {   
                       national_idea = { country = -1 personality_string = policy_culture_absolut }  # Fundamentalism 
                       national_idea = { country = -1 personality_string = policy_culture_civic }  #  nationalism        
                       ideology = nazi
                  }
                                                               
                        }


                AND =  {
                                     ideology = fascist 
                                     national_idea = { country = -1 personality_string = policy_identity_parochial }  #  militarism

                          }
                                                                    
                   ideology = stalinist   #communist states are subject to embargoes directly
                   NOT = { relation = { which = USA value = -180 } }
                   national_idea = { country = -1 personality_string = policy_identity_guardians }  # military expansionism
                   national_idea = { country = -1 personality_string = policy_identity_imperial }   # world police
                   

                
  


              }
	
	}



	name = "EVT_150001_NAME"
	desc = "EVT_150001_DESC"
        picture = "security_council"
	style = 0


	
	action_a = { 
		name = "It will hurt us" 
                command = { type = local_clrflag which = NO_EMBARGO }
                command = { type = local_setflag which = HAVE_EMBARGO }
                command = {  type = research_mod value = -10 }
                command = {  type = peacetime_ic_mod value = -10 }

	}
	
}

Persistent usage seems fine - does the event not fire at all or just not for the AI ?

Yeah, It works fine, When I wasn't informed about the occurrence of event, I thought it didn't fire but I learnt that this is the feature of persistent events. In short, it fires but I can't see.

Persistent events are reported just like other events. If it does not fire for you then it might appear in the game log. To be sure it fires properly you need to change your message settings so you see all events.
