Ok here I will put a couple of (mostly)flavour events I've been making these past few days.
1. Character death events (chardeath.rar)
For some reason or the other I found it extremely frustrating after a while that I couldn't see how most of my characters have died in their histories, most of these logs just abruptly ended without saying anything. So I made a couple of triggered character events that... well... kill characters and replaced every death=yes I could find with a call to an appropriate event.
Here is the main event file:
These events are compatible with every mod that doesn't alter one of the event files mentioned as the caller of each of these events.
2. Murder objective trial (murder_obj_trials.rar)
Another thing that annoyed me while playing was how some imbecilic rival of my best characters often killed them through the Die! event(7510) with impunity... so I made a series of events that may put those characters under trial.
Here is the main event file:
This is compatible with any mod that doesn't change the event file "objective events.txt", which means its incompatible with the previous chardeath events I've uploaded. If you want to use both download the file chardeath&murder_obj_trials_combo.rar that contains an "objective events.txt" that works for both.
3. Divorce barren old wife event (al_divorce.txt)
Yet another thing that annoyed me(it should be clear by now that I'm easily annoyed) was that many of my promising characters although young ended up being married to some old barren hag and had no chance of having a son. So I decided to make an event where more prominent characters can divorce their old wives if they have no sons.
Since I seem to have misplaced this event, I ended up fixing an older version I had backed up, an older version I'm unsure of how properly it works, so if someone could check whether the conditions are firing properly(since I don't have a save right now) it would be much appreciated.
Here is the event file:
This event should be compatible with all mods, well unless they use the event id 169995 which I think is unlikely, just throw the txt into your mod's event folder.
4. Nasty jail events (al_jail_events.txt)
I've always thought that imprisoned characters had it easy, so I remedied that. The first two events are just for flavour they only add an entry in the character's history that he's been imprisoned and released, unfortunately I couldn't make them fire immediately(if anyone has some idea please let me know) and will fire about a month after the event... but I think its ok. The rest are just there to make your prisoners' lives more miserable.
It should be compatible with all mods unless they use the same event ids(166000-166010), just throw the txt into your mod's event folder.
----------------------------------------
Please note that these events I've put here are all parts of a larger mod I've been making for myself which I've recreated to function individually and haven't tested much on their own... so any and all feedback will be appreciated.
----------------------------------------
That is all for now.

}3. Divorce barren old wife event (al_divorce.txt)
Yet another thing that annoyed me(it should be clear by now that I'm easily annoyed) was that many of my promising characters although young ended up being married to some old barren hag and had no chance of having a son. So I decided to make an event where more prominent characters can divorce their old wives if they have no sons.
Since I seem to have misplaced this event, I ended up fixing an older version I had backed up, an older version I'm unsure of how properly it works, so if someone could check whether the conditions are firing properly(since I don't have a save right now) it would be much appreciated.
Here is the event file:

#and some prominence to get another a wife

is_ruler = no
#or if you have a great relationship
NOT = { is_friend = THIS }
}
#doesn't have a male living child

any_child = {
is_female = no
is_alive = yes
}
}
}
mean_time_to_happen = {
years = 10
#if he has the have a son objective it should happen ASAP

}4. Nasty jail events (al_jail_events.txt)
I've always thought that imprisoned characters had it easy, so I remedied that. The first two events are just for flavour they only add an entry in the character's history that he's been imprisoned and released, unfortunately I couldn't make them fire immediately(if anyone has some idea please let me know) and will fire about a month after the event... but I think its ok. The rest are just there to make your prisoners' lives more miserable.
It should be compatible with all mods unless they use the same event ids(166000-166010), just throw the txt into your mod's event folder.
----------------------------------------
Please note that these events I've put here are all parts of a larger mod I've been making for myself which I've recreated to function individually and haven't tested much on their own... so any and all feedback will be appreciated.
----------------------------------------
That is all for now.
