Good idea for an event to help with critical resource shortages in early game

[unmerged(12412)]

There needs to be a random event that fires every couple of years or so (on average) called 'Encourage Cottage Industries'. It gives you the choice of paying $1000 for a small amount of clothing, paper, and furniture, $5000 for a larger amount and an increase to the cash for laborers and farmers in a certain state, or not paying at all.

This would give countries that have everything they need to industrialize except for a few basic commodities the option to get them, though not on demand and at high cost.

Or just make an event that increases the work hour efficiency. Maybe put it at like 200 or 400. Worked for me and I have a ton of resources on the world market.

But for some unknown that event will only benefit the human player.

I increased the work hour efficiency by adding a command in tech 5001, the first tech (industry_tech.txt file)

Think this will work somewhat better as it will benefit all the nations that have tech 5001 (water-wheel power) or will invent it, and not only the human player.

grouchy does this problem happen for your ecuador event? If so my mod needs some tweking I think I will go change that to the waterwheel tech now
