Rumeli Hisari event not prevented by victory

RMS Oceanic · 2023-11-07T00:37:01+00:00

Not really a bug but more a design question. So I played Byzantium and successfully took back my cores from the Ottomans in the first war. But then I still got the event where the Ottomans build a castle "On our side of the Bosporus", I lose stability and the modifier for naval attrition is applied to Kocaeli/Nicomedia. Two issues with this: - Kocaeli is not "Our side of the Bosporus", so the flavour text contradicts what's happening in the game. I understand why, the fortress is so close to Constantinople as to be inside modern Istanbul, and thus Kocaeli is about as close as you can get without forcefeeding the modifier to Constantinple proper, but if you haven't done this outside-game research you'd think you have to control Gallipoli to prevent it because it talks about "our side". - The more annoying one, the event only checks that the Ottomans and Byzantium aren't at war. The fortress is meant to represent the penultimate step the Ottomans take to truly cut off and strangle Constantinople before the final siege, but for them to build that fort after a successful war while a truce is in effect feels like a spit in the face for a successful defence and reconquest of Byzantine territory. More conditions like checking for previous victory and/or the existence of a truce should be applied to the event, and perhaps a way of forestalling its construction that doesn't necessarily require conquering across the strait.
