Back in my days we couldn't even write elaborate event chains with all these fancy thinga mabobs like flags and variables. And we were better for it.

(just joking, I definitely get what you mean)
 
When I scripted the first narrative events for CK2, I used a mind map software in order to remember which event that linked to another one. Can recommend http://twinery.org/ as I've used it to visualize the links between the events and it worked pretty well. Takes a while to do though, so a real scripting tool would be better than using a separate mind map software.
