Is there anyone out there who knows what this trigger does? I'm trying to make sense of AI_sliders.txt in \db\events. The events look good, but several elements are confusing me (and I don't want to bother Lothos).
1) I'm guessing these events are triggered yearly, once at game start, and every 12 months thereafter.
2) can_change_policy would presumably check if
a) The sliders are maxed
b) The government type supports that move
3) The game chooses randomly until it finds an event that fits (as with random events)
The events cause Democratic Minors to go +1 Freedom, +1 Free market, -1 Hawk, or -1 Professional. Communist or Fascist minors go the other way: -1 Freedom, -1 Free Market, +1 Hawk, +1 Standing. And there is one more event that casues them to go +1 Interventionist if "atwar = yes". Incidently, this is the only one with an atwar trigger.
I do have one gripe with theses events: there is no "atwar = no" trigger for the dove moves. Would a democracy atwar really go "defense_lobby value = -1"? But that would require coding one more event (12009), for democracies atwar going +1 hawk.
