1. Introduction

In EU 2, it is possible to implement complicated events by using a custom script language. The events can be set to happen for a certain country at or between certain dates, with optional condition triggers.

1.1 Events and alternatives

Most events have two or more alternatives. The basic convention is to place the historically chosen alternative as the first one. The first choice will be selected by the AI with a 85% probability for each event. This is to ensure that the AI acts as "correct" as possible. (after all, this is a history game).

Some events deal with countries being incorporated in other. The important thing to remember here is to always leave a backdoor for a human player! Imagin playing away, doing fine, just to suddenly get the message "you got annexed"... What you do is to include a event for the country going to be annexed, where the AI with about 85% probability (see here) will acept, but the human player will refuse. A good example of this is the "Succession in Luxembourg"-event, where Burgundy in most games inherit Luxembourg.

(ToC)

This is the event for Lux:

	id = 3605
	trigger = {
		exists = BUR
		atwar = no
	}
	random = no
	country = LUX
	name = "EVENTNAME3605"
	desc = "EVENTHIST3605"
	style = 1

	date = { day = 1 month = august year = 1451 }
	offset = 0
	deathdate = { day = 2 month = august year = 1500 }

	action_a ={ #Let us be a part of Great Burgundy#
		name = "ACTIONNAME3605A"
		command = { type = trigger which = 3598 }
	}
	action_b ={ #Let the Burgundian monarch become our Duke#
		name = "ACTIONNAME3605B"
		command = { type = trigger which = 3599 }
		command = { type = dynastic which = BUR }
		command = { type = alliance which = BUR }
		command = { type = stability value = 3 }
	}
	action_c ={ #Let us elect a local Count as Duke#
		name = "ACTIONNAME3605C"
		command = { type = trigger which = 3600 }
		command = { type = stability value = -3 }
		command = { type = revolt which = -1 }
	}
}

The first action trigger the inherit event for Burgundy. The second one trigger a vassalage event for Burgundy, where Luxembourg becomes vassals of Burgundy. The last option is a clear break and trigger a "retaliation"-event for Burgundy where they get a CB on Luxembourg.

1.2 Random/nonspecific provinces

You can target random provinces in the country receiving the event by replacing the province number with '-1', '-2', '-3' or '-4'. -1 is one random province from a set depending on command (see below) and -2 is your capital. -3 can be used to make several things happend in the same random province.

Example of event commands using these random selectors:

 		command = { type = INF which = -1 value = 8000 }
		command = { type = CAV which = -3 value = 6000 }
		command = { type = ART which = -3 value = 20 }

The commands above will select a random province, put 8000 infantry there, and proceed wth 6000 cavalry and 20 artillery in the same random province.

Province '-4' is used to target events to colonies, or to be more specific: A province with 700+ population on the American Continent. An example of this is the "Colonial defense"-events for England:

	action_b ={ #Invest in expensive Perimeter Defense#
		name = "ACTIONNAME3343B"
		command = { type = sleepevent which = 3346 }
		command = { type = treasury value = -600 }
		command = { type = fortress which = -4 value = 1 }
		command = { type = fortress which = -4 value = 1 }
	}
			

Subsets of provinces used for random targetting:

1.3 Random/nonspecific countries

As for provinces above, you can also target random countries. This is dome by replacing the country tag with '-1' or '-6'. -1 is a random country. -6 is the Holy Roman Emperor.

(ToC)

2. The Event Files

Events are separated into major and flavour events. Although they are scripted exactly the same way, the convention is to place minor events, such as cultural personalities, in the flavour event files, whereas major events go in the major event files. This is just a convention; the event files can be called anything as long as they are included in db\events.txt (whose name is also a convention - it is just included in all of the scenario .EUG files). Random events are added in special files.

2.1 Major event path

Major events should be scripted in the files called:

db\events\major_xxx.txt

(Where XXX is the country tag.)

2.2 Flavour event path

Flavour events should be scripted in the files called:

db\events\flavor_xxx.txt

(Where XXX is the country tag.)

(ToC)

2.3 Random Events

The random events reside in two files:

db\events\randomevents.txt

and

db\events\randomreligiousevents.txt

2.4 Huge events

Some events affect all countries in the world. Examples are the reformation and the Treaty of Tortesillas. These are stored in:

db\events\hugeevents.txt

and

db\events\religiousevents.txt

2.5 Event texts

The texts for the events reside in the file called:

config\text.csv

This is a comma-separated resource file containing all the in-game text. You may also insert the texts directly into the events between the ""s.

(ToC)

3 Event Structure

Example:

event = {
	id = 3704
	trigger = {}
	random = no
	country = CHI
	name = "EVENTNAME3704"
	desc = "EVENTHIST3704"
	style = 1
	date = { day = 1 month = october year = 1773 }
	offset = 150
	deathdate = { day = 2 month = may year = 1820 }

	action_a ={
		name = "ACTIONNAME3704A"
		command = { }
		command = { }
		command = { }
	}
	action_b ={
		name = "ACTIONNAME3704B"
		command = { }
		command = { }
		command = { }
	}
	action_c ={
		name = "ACTIONNAME3704C"
		command = { }
		command = { }
		command = { }
	}
	action_d ={
		name = "ACTIONNAME3704D"
		command = { }
		command = { }
		command = { }
	}
}

This is an empty event that will do nothing, but it will happen to China sometime from Oct 1, 1773 and 150 days forward. We will now go through each of the commands outlined in the example, in order.

(ToC)

3.1 Id

Every event in the game must have a unique id. It is very important that there are no id conflicts. Event ids 0-100000 are reserved for Paradox use. The allowed range for add-on ids is 100000 - 4294967296. Yup, that's a looot of events

Example :

	id = 31001 

3.2 Trigger

The trigger condition statement is optional. If left out the event will happen on the dates specified, or if directly triggered by another event.

Example:

	trigger = {
		atwar = yes
	}

It is also possible to set several conditions for the trigger.

Example :

	trigger = {
		exists = TUR
		event = 3549
		atwar = no
	}

In this case, all three conditions must be true; the default Boolean operator is AND. However, it is also possible to use OR and NOT.

Example:

	trigger = {
		OR = {
			owned = { province = 110 data = -1 }
			owned = { province = 86 data = -1 }
			owned = { province = 47 data = -1 }
		}
		NOT = {
			event = 3301
		}
	}

This trigger is true if province 110 OR 86 OR 47 is owned by the country this event affects AND event 3301 has NOT happened.

If more than one trigger is listed within a NOT statement, the event will only trigger if ALL of the listed conditions are untrue.

Example:

	trigger = {
		NOT = {
			religion = catholic
			religion = counterreformed
		}
	}

This event will trigger if the country are of any other religion than the two listed; if ANY of them is true, then the not is false.

(ToC)

3.3 Random

This directive tells whether the event should be random or not. For country events, this is usually no.

Example:

	random = no
			

Random events are the only event that can happend more than once. Date, offset and deathdate are not taken in account in random events. Any start and final years has to be set using the year trigger. Random events can be nation specific. A random event cannot trigger another event.

3.4 Country

This statement tells which country the event should affect. This must be set to a valid country tag. If this statement is left out, the event will happen for all countries!

Example:

	country = CHI
			

The country can be omitted if the event is a random event (see 3.3) or if you have other triggers deciding the country affected, like owned or control (see 3.5 below). If you have an event that is not specified directed to a country or province, this will trigger for the human player(s) in the game once the triggers are valid for any country.

3.5 Province

An alternative to using the country statement, this means that the event should happen for whoever owning a certain province.

Example:

	province= 357
			

This event will happend, if other triggers are met, to the country owning province 357.

3.6 Name

This specifies the name of the event that appears in the event window. This is language specific and thus kept in the file text.csv.

Example:

	name = "EVENTNAME3704"
			

The eventname can also be inserted right into the event file. Note: This will not allow translation!

Example:

	name = "The peasants are revolting!"
			

A new feature in 1.06 is the possibility to "stealth" events happending to the AI. You do this by using name = "AI_EVENT". This will cause the event to not show in the game log as it happends. It's effects might though... The feature is tailored for use together with the new ai = yes/no trigger (above).

(ToC)

3.7 Desc

This is the main event text that appears in the event window. This is language specific and thus kept in the file text.csv.

Example:

	desc = "EVENTHIST3704"
			

The eventdescription can also be inserted right into the event file. Note: This will not allow translation!

Example:

	desc = "Upset by the religious intolerance of the government
		the peasants are rallying to the rebel flag!"
			

3.8 Style

This specifies the look of the event window depending on the time period when the event appears. (1=15th century, 5=19th.)

Example:

	style = 1

Note: Style isn't used in EU2.

3.9 Date

This is the date when the event may first happen. If this directive is used alone (no offset), the event will happen on this exact date if triggers are valid. If triggers are not valid the event will never happend!

Example:

	date = { day = 1 month = october year = 1773 }

(ToC)

3.10 Offset

This is a random offset in days, always used in conjunction with the date statement. It means that the event may happen on any of these days from the time specified in date. If the event has triggers it will start searching for triggers on this date.

Note: After the first trigger check after a random number of days the triggers are checked again at intervalls defined by the offset. This means that for an 'offset = 360' the event will first check the triggers on a random day the first year after the set date, and then once every year!

Example:

	offset = 30

In this case the event will start checking for triggers on a random date within 30 days from the date specified. If no valid triggers are found on that date it will check again each month (30 days) until triggers are met, or until event deathdate is reached.

If a game is saved/reloaded in the middle of an offset, the event is checked at reload (which explains why you so often get certain events on reload).

3.11 Deathdate

This is the deadline of an event, after which it may no longer be triggered. The deathdate statement is only useful if the event has a trigger condition. Events without a deathdate will fire if other triggers are valid on the date specified by the date/offset parameters. If triggers are not valid on that date the event will never fire. If you want the event to keep looking for triggers you need to define a deathdate.

Example:

	deathdate = { day = 1 month = october year = 1820 }

3.12 Action

The action statements are the responses to the event offered to the player. Sometimes it is appropriate with a single one, "Ok", other times there may be up to four different responses. Action statements always contain a name statement and any number of command statements.

Example:

	action_a ={ #Ok
		name = "ACTIONNAME3704A"
		command = { }
	}

This is a simple ok action. The name statement points to a text in text.csv. Even an action that does nothing must contain a command statement. As for name and description the actionname can be entered right into the event:

Example:

	action_a ={ #Ok
		name = "Crush the rebellion!"
		command = { }
	}

When the AI get an event there is always the largest chance it will select the first action, action_a. In an event with two options the AI will select action_a most of the time (se below). This means that you should always put the historic choice as the first one.

3.12.1 Exact AI event selection percentages

As mention above there is about 85% chance for the AI selecting the first choice in an event. The exact percentages are:

(ToC)

3.12.2 Commands

Some general rules and problems with commands:

• Commands that modify province values are ignored if the province belongs to a country different than the one affected by the event.
• Commands that affect countries that do not exist are ignored.
• It is not possible to adjust relations with all countries of a certain religion or on a certain continent with one command.

Not that if all commands in an action are ignored, the button will not show. If all commands in all events are ignored, the event will not appear at all.

The list of valid commands:

Diplomatic commands:

command = { type = alliance   which = aaa }

Adds nation with tag aaa to military alliance of the country affected by the event. Note that this will only happend is: The country receiving the event is alliance leader or unallied and country aaa is unallied.

command = { type = breakdynastic  which = aaa }

Is supposed to break royal marriage with country aaa. Appears to not work at all.

command = { type = breakvassal  which = aaa }

Break vassalage with country aaa. This command does not work if invoked in an events for the liege country or if the vassalage was created after the game was last loaded from save. Also note that if a vassalage is broken in event, a new vassalisation for that tag cannot be created by an event triggered from that same event.

command = { type = casusbelli   which = x value = y }

Gain casus belli against country x for y months.

command = { type = dynastic   which = aaa }

command = { type = relation   which = aaa value = x }

Modify diplomatic relation with country aaa with value x.

command = { type = vassal   which = aaa }

Make country aaa a vassal of teh receiving country. Note: This will create a vassalage whatever situation The scripter should take precautions (triggers etc) to avoid use when countries are at war, or to avoid a country becoming a vassal of it's own vassal...

command = { type = war  which = aaa }
