Trigger failing when conditions are met

[jatz]

event = {
	id = 357000
	random = no
	trigger = {
		core_national = { province = 477 data = BYZ }
		provincereligion = { province = 477 data = orthodox }
		owned  = { province = 477 data = BYZ }
	}
	country = BYZ
	name = "Reconquest of Anatolia"
	desc = "With this portion of the old Byzantine heartland firmly back in our control, the demographics have adjusted accordingly."

	date = { day = 1 month = january year = 1337 }
	offset = 300

	action_a = {
		name = "Greeks predominate."
		command = { type = provinceculture which = 477 value = greek }
		command = { type = provincetax which = 477 value = 2 }
		}
}

Can anyone tell me why this event isn't firing? All the conditions are met.

First the usual questions. Did you wait 300 days? Is it in an event file which is included properly? Can you fire it from the console?

[Pied-Noir]

Yeah, try adding an end date and lowering the offset. You should also export your text to one of the localization files.

[Third Angel]

Yes, you should remove the offset or add a deathdate. The descriptions are short enough so they should not be a problem.

The descriptions are short enough so they should not be a problem.

Indeed, but better safe than sorry I say. It also looks a lot tidier.

The event is included properly, I can fire it from the console. I have waited 300 days. I tried running the event with the description changed to DESC = "".

I will try removing or reducing the offset, then adding a death date. I will test it again when I get home from class, thanks for the responses everyone.

[Pied-Noir]

You should always include a death date just in case, even if it's 1820 or whatever you're using as the end point of the game.

Removing the offset and adding a deathdate worked, thanks everyone!
