Grand Event Request Thread

Welcome to the HOI2/DD Grand Event Request Thread. Need an Event, come here and ask. Here is a small sampling of a couple events.

Want the Free Polish Forces represented in this game? Need some extra troops as Britain? Here you go:

Code:

#############################################
###### The Free Polish Forces 
#############################################
event = {
         id = 300000
         random = no
         country = ENG
         trigger = {
                   NOT = { 
                            exists = POL
                   }

         }
 
         name = "EVT_300000_NAME"
         desc = "EVT_300000_DESC"
         style = 0
         picture = "polish_reinforcments"
 
         date = { day = 12 month = october year = 1939 }
         offset = 0
         deathdate = { day = 30 month = december year = 1953 }
 
           action_a = {
                  name = "ACTIONNAME300000A"
                  command = { type = add_division which = 1st Polish Armored value = light_armor when = 4 where = sp_artillery }
                  command = { type = add_division which = Polish Airborne Brigade value = paratrooper when = 1 where = artillery }
                  command = { type = add_division which = 1st Polish Volunteers value = infantry when = 3 }
                  command = { type = add_division which = 2nd Polish Volunteers value = infantry when = 3 where = artillery }
                  command = { type = add_division which = Polish Air Volunteers value = multi_role when = 2 }
           }

}

and the Event.txt

Code:

EVT_300000_NAME;The Free Polish Forces;;;;;;;;;;x
EVT_300000_DESC;The Free Polish Forces were formed from refugee's and ethnic Polish People. They participated in Campaigns in Britain, Holland, France, and Italy. ;;;;;;;;;;x
ACTIONNAME300000A;Form the Free Polish Forces;;;;;;;;;;x

That is a sampling of what I can do. This Event has been fixed to work.

Any Requests?

Side Note: This is to save people like Thistletooth some time.

Here is a listing:

Finally, someone to do my bidding because I'm too lazy!

First off, a way to settle my OCD regarding unfinished conflicts. Could you make an "End of the Chinese Civil War" AI-only event? It could fire midway through 1949, for Nat. China. Option A is Nationalist victory, B is Communist victory, with 50% chance for each. Whoever wins inherits all the warlords, and the other China. I think you'll have to create another event for ComChina to inherit if they win, triggered by the first event. Also, make the events liberate the other China on Taiwan, after they're inherited.

Thank ye kindly.

EDIT: Actually, that would make Taiwan have the same ideology as China. If possible, could follow-up events be made to set Taiwan's policies in order? Now I feel like a leech...

EDIT 2: Both your events cause crash errors in my game. Did they work for you?

Not a good sign for the Events... Is it the use of NOT{ possibly?

Anyway, I will throw something together a little later. The Event you made should be easily doable. I don't know the problem with my events, try shortening the Description, and if that doesn't work, try moving the triggers all the way to the side of the document. If neither of those work I will continue my testing, and redo them possibly. Maybe I need some EVT.txt?

I will throw your event together around 6 or so, so expect it ready later tonight. Thanks for your support, and if anyone wanted to help, it would be appreciated if you found the event problem.

I seconed the request for this to be stickied

Ok, here is what you have to do. Go to Revolt.txt and change Nat China's Minimum to 1322, 1323, and 1324.

Next Install these Events:

Code:

#############################################

        date = { day = 16 month = june year = 1949 }
        offset = 0
        deathdate = { day = 30 month = december year = 1953 }
 
        action_a = {
                name = "ACTIONNAME200001A"
                command = { type = inherit which = CHI }
                command = { type = inherit which = CSX }

                command = { type = control which = CHC value = 1322 }
        }

}


#############################################
###### The End of the Chinese Civil War #

event = {
        id = 200000
        random = no

                ai_chance = 50
                command = { type = inherit which = CHC }

                command = { type = trigger which = 200001 }
        }

}

#############################################
###### Taiwan # 
#############################################
event = {
        id = 200002
        random = no
        country = CHC
        trigger = {
                ai = yes

        }
 
        name = "EVT_200002_NAME"
        desc = "EVT_200002_DESC"
        style = 0
        picture = "coldwar"
 
        date = { day = 17 month = june year = 1949 }
        offset = 0
        deathdate = { day = 30 month = december year = 1953 }
 
        action_a = {
                name = ""
                command = { type = independence which = CHI value = 0 when = 1 }
        }

}

Then this Event.txt:

Code:

EVT_200001_NAME;The End in China: Communist Victory;;;;;;;;;;x
EVT_200001_DESC;This is an Event to end the Chinese Civil War;;;;;;;;;;x
ACTIONNAME200001A;OK!;;;;;;;;;;x
EVT_200000_NAME;The End of the Chinese Civil War;;;;;;;;;;x
EVT_200000_DESC;This is a quick event to end the Chinese Civil War;;;;;;;;;;x
ACTIONNAME200000A;The Nationalists Win;;;;;;;;;;x

EVT_200002_NAME;Taiwan;;;;;;;;;;x
EVT_200002_DESC;Despite the Mainland Defeat, the Republic of China held out on Taiwan.;;;;;;;;;;x
;OK;;;;;;;;;;x

This all has been tested and should work. Your welcome!

Looking forward to a challenge, just remember to make the list clear and detailed and I should be fine.

I honestly enjoy this work, and with each new event I know I am satisfying somebody

Its really my pleasure, and I would like to thank you for the Risk Battle Mod that I really have to get around to installing. I've heard great things about it and have enjoyed every AAR about it. Maybe next weekend.....

The Polish event still refuses to work for me. It says there's an "unknown lhs in game-event", then something about day = 30. I have no idea what the problem is. I event tried copy and pasting the deathdate line (the exact same date) from the event directly above it in my UK event file, but no luck.

EDIT: The problem was lack of an offset. You need a numerical value there. I used one.

My bad on that, I always forget the offset.. I apologize, and hope your events work fine

What about...

Greeks Restore the Byzantine Empire

-Triggered when Greeks hold Athens, Istanbul and Ankara.
-Relations with the Soviets are lowered, since some believed that Russia represented the new Rome. (Even though the Communists themselves didn't endorse it)
-Cores are added for Turkey (Or at least the Western Half), Bulgaria, Yugoslavia and the Coast of Romania....Based mostly on the empire in 1025 so not to unbalance the rest of the world. Byzantine Empire in 1025

It sleeps the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. Though it probably should sleep claiming Danzig. Yes it is SOV instead of SU

o woops.

Does the event cede Ostpreussen to Poland as well? It probably should. Speaking of which, while we're on the subject of Poland, how about an event for Poland to inherit Lithuania if they get peace in the previous event?

Im not comforable with the idea of an unilateral anexion of Lithuania. Even if its a very minor nation, it should have to decide if it want to join or not Poland.

What about...

Greeks Restore the Byzantine Empire

-Triggered when Greeks hold Athens, Istanbul and Ankara.
-Relations with the Soviets are lowered, since some believed that Russia represented the new Rome. (Even though the Communists themselves didn't endorse it)
-Cores are added for Turkey (Or at least the Western Half), Bulgaria, Yugoslavia and the Coast of Romania....Based mostly on the empire in 1025 so not to unbalance the rest of the world. Byzantine Empire in 1025

How's this one coming?

I'll have it done tomorrow, sorry for the delay. The Warriors called, and I needed to get Monte Ellis's autograph. (Since you like soccer I'll say its like getting David Beckham's autograph or something like that).

Rest assured, tomorrow I'll put the finishing touches on. I apologize for it being a little later than usual, yet I am a Sports fan and this was a once a year opportunity.

Agreed, but just don't use the event I made for the guy who requested it. Yours should be fine. Unless you want a new series that gives Lithuania a choice?

Peoples Republic of America

How about an event where, if the war is going badly for the US, a special election will occur with pro Nazi party, mega isolationist party, and a socialist party, with possibility of communist revolution! USA joins COMINTERN! I am not creative enough to imagine the intenational relations ramifications, so if anyone has ideas feel free to chime in!
