I rarely ever see any events relating to friends or rivals so i decided to check out the event folder. To my surprise there are quite a lot in the friends/rivals_eventsfilev file. I've never had any of these events fire; such as "Son seeks revenge for his father", "You've made friends with another child in the court", and "Flirtatious girl - new friend or rival?"

Just curious, does anyone else ever see any events about friends/rivals?

I also see not many of them... I wish they would be more likely to appear. And I want a Friend and a Rival section in the character screen.

Most of those events happen for children and concern getting friends/rivals, and there are very few follow-ups where they (friends/rivals) would in some way interact. Moreso a lot of friends/rivals are just landless courtiers that may disappear from the court once they marry/gain land. I remember having a rival as a child Byzantine Emperor but it was just an event where I gained a rival and a lot later an event where he died. Ocassionally I discover that my ruler has a friend, but, since the interface has no place for friends, rivals and lovers, it's something that is hard to even find out about.

Unfortunately as Me_ said most of them appear to happen during childhood, which is a waste since, well, most times you don't get to play as a kid; and even if the friendship/rivalry survives with your adult character, there's' no way to figure out who your friends/rivals are. THe Additional Objectives mod did friends/rivals and notifying you of such pretty well, but it's only been recently updated by someone else and hasn't been tested extensively.
