Either the flags do not work or the event commands.txt file incompletely advises on their use. In the following couplet of events, the first event fired, and the french chose choice A, which should have set a flag that should have caused the second event to fire. The second event never fired.
event = {
id = 2003
random = no
country = FRA
# Triggered by CZE 2200
name = "French Response to UK Offer of Sudetenland"
desc = "France had entered into a treaty with Czechoslovakia guaranteeing its independence and promising to come to its aid if subjected to aggression. The French were tossed onto the horns of a dilemma by Hitler's gambit, as they desired to fulfill their obligations to Czechoslovakia, but they craved an avoidance of war almost as much as fine wine. As a treaty partner of Czechoslovakia, France's response to the British offer would have a crucial impact on the course of the crisis."

He could take all of Czechoslovakia, but he would start with the Sudetenland. However, the Western Powers' docility emboldened Hitler to make additional demands. He wanted more than just 3 million Germans added to his realm. He wanted immediate occupation of the entire Sudetenland. Perhaps, even, what he really wanted was war, and he would push the West until they granted it to him. Thus, at another conference in Bad Godesberg, Hitler was prepared with new demands."
