Why do NO events fire?

[C.V. Mannerheim]

Playing the 1881 scenario until 1898, i realized:



None of the events fire.

Even during elections, not a single event pops up.


Any ideas as to what the problem is?

I think there's a bug in 1881.eug in scenario folder:

event = "db\events\1881.txt"

in the last line!
Change it to this:

include = "db\events\1881.txt"

bye

There's a similar problem that happens when the game crashes during the saving process.

Anyone know if this has been reported as a bug? Just wondering.

I'm pretty sure that the specific entry for 1881.txt is supposed to be "event =", not "include =". The 1881.txt file contains events that are specifically for the 1881 scenario. The previous line in the scenario file loads the regular events:

include = "db\events.txt"

That is also how it is scripted in the 1914 scenario, as that is the only other scenario with scenario-specific events.

I will double-check in a bit to make sure this works correctly.

Okay, I just tested the 1.02 version of the 1881 scenario file, & it loaded events properly as it is currently setup (i.e. I could fire events both from the regular files as well as 1881.txt using F12). It does not seem to be a problem with the scenario file.

I'm going to move this to the bug sub-forum in case someone there has seen a similar problem.
