Where are the event texts?

[johho888]

Having just been helped on how to trigger an event I now want to edit the event text but I can't seem to find them.

For example event 3540 displays different text when playing as Spain or as the Order but neither text seems to be in the events.csv or in the major_kni.txt so where are they?

They are in events.csv in FtG/Localisation/English. You can also write event texts straight into the event file like this:

event = {
	id = 5162
	random = no
	country = SPA
	name = "Flag of Spain"
	desc = "We have adopted a new flag for our glorious Empire!"
	action_a = { 			#Ok#
		name = "Si!"
		command = { type = flagname which = xxx }
	}
}

As has been stressed by Michael M, there are some texts which are too long to be displayed if they are inserted in the event itself. For those long texts, you will get an error message when you start the game, so you have to include them in events.csv anyway.
