Description of the Issue
#############################
The events in ambitions_event.txt are linked to "improve skill" ambitions (if you don't have Way of Life dlc) and "lower decadence" ambition.
If you have Way of Life dlc, the "improve skill" events are linked to one of the focus.
Usually each category of events (skills + decadence) has 3 event chains and 3 simple events.
The event chains use two flags
One "ongoing" flag to prevent triggering any other event chain of the same category, until the chain is finished.
One "taken" flag to be sure that this chain of event only occurs once per character.
Issue is that the ongoing flags are only removed when the corresponding ambition has been fulfilled. Once one of the event chain has been started, if the ambition is not fulfilled despite the outcome (martial skill >=8 or decadence < 60), no other ambition event will trigger.
Without Way of Life DLC, it's still possible to fulfilled the ambition (by any other mean) to cancel the flags, or to cancel the ambition and retake it.
With Way of Life DLC, it can only be done for the lower decadence ambition.
NOTE : The event chain "Toy Army" (id=94000) will induce a loop. The event 94001 will keep on triggering with a MTTH of 60 months, increasing your martial skill by 1 or 2, until the ambition is fulfilled or canceled, which is not possible with the Way of Life DLC.
Solution
#############################
Easiest way to correct is to remove the ongoing flags in all events finishing a chain.
TLDR
#############################
Only one "improve skill" ambition event chain can be triggered per character with Way of Life DLC
Toy Army event induces a loop with Way of Life DLC (Martial skill get improved by 1 or 2 with a MTTH of 60 months)
"Lower Decadence" events will only trigger once until ambition is either fulfilled or canceled and retaken.
EDIT : Horse Lords DLC was not guilty, Way of Life is
