Interesting observation

[unmerged(1302)]

While re-doing some of the events I found one peculiar things:
If you try to block the original "Paradoxic" events, and block 3 (!) events in a row with those #, then the game wouldn't start. If only 2, evrything seems to be normal. Keep in mind when replacing the existing events....

I've found that the order of my events in the file can prevent loading, or the order of events in conjunction with the number of lines in the file ...

This game is just weird sometimes.

Errors in Paradox Events

I found a mistake in Turkish events file regarding Serbian independence. See this ID: 3399

Hehe. Mamelukes get independence after 1800 if Turkey owns Serbia? Did you post this in the bug forum?

Driftwood, Crook, i'm confused, could you explain again what you mean???

Well, the event is

#Serbian Independence#
event = {
id = 3399
trigger = {
owned = {
province = 355
data = -1
}
NOT = {
exists = SER
}
}
random = no
country = TUR
name = "EVENTNAME3399"
desc = "EVENTHIST3399"
style = 5

date = { day = 1 month = january year = 1800 }
offset = 5000

action_a ={ # Accept their freedom
name = "ACTIONNAME3399A"
command = { type = independence which = MAM }
command = { type = domestic which = CENTRALIZATION value = -1 }
}
action_b ={ # Crush the rebels
name = "ACTIONNAME3399B"
command = { type = revolt which = 355 }
command = { type = revolt which = 355 }
command = { type = revolt which = 363 }
command = { type = revolt which = 364 }
command = { type = stability value = -2 }
}
}

Look at action_a, and note who is given independence, and the fact that MAM is not SER. Also, the revolts in action_b occur in Serbia, Serbia, Kosovo, and Bosnia (as you would expect).

I've already logged this as a bug.

Nono, i understand this, i was asking about those things you said in your two first posts...

Maur,

Let's say you want to replace the whole events file for Poland, but want to leave the old file still there. If you try to block the events by putting # in front of each line, somehow blocking 3 events in a row causes the game to crash (it doesn't even start), so either rename the file to smth else, and create a new events file, or if you choose to block them, re-arrange the evnts inside the file, so you have no more than 2 events blocked in a row.

Hope that this helps.

As for me, you may or may not remember a couple of weeks ago when I was complaining that any event file longer than 628 lines (or so) would crash during loading. So then I split it into two files, and it worked. Then I (later) recombined them, but played around with the order (and maybe corrected bugs - I honestly can't remember) and got them to work. This also happened on a smaller scale, where I would always get an error for the exact same line, regardless of taking the offending event out of the file or leaving it in (with cut and paste). Then I changed the order, and things worked fine.
