Is Faceting bugged?

[Sara Rem]

Hey everyone! I'm currently playing as Burgundy (evidently), and I have all the prerequisites for Faceting to trigger in Metz. as it produces glass, I have over 50 prestige (60), the development of Metz is 15, and I have fully embraced Renaissance, and the state of Lorraine embraced it in every province too. I'll provide screenshots of all that as well. So, why am I still not getting Faceting? Any ideas? (I also have the prerequisite of not being Venice, lol)

ummm... isn't this event random? Did someone else get it? You do get a pop-up if it spawns in another country.

Metz has Coal as a latent good. Faceting can't spawn in a Coal province. Try Liege

No, the event isn't random, it triggers in the first country that meets all the prerequisites.

So if a province has a latent trade good it blocks the event from registering that the province has glass in the first place? Weird, but I guess... understandable... kinda?

I mean this question has been asked multiple times in the past. I looked into the event ID. So any owned province with the condition will appear. This is like how institution spawns. It is proven you cannot guarentee the spawn of (e.g. Colonialism) as Portugal even though you fulfilled all the colonialism requirements.

Trigger conditions Global flag faceting_happened is not set Has embraced the Renaissance institution Has at least 50 Prestige (Note: event target conditions below) Any owned province: Has embraced the Renaissance institution Has at least 15 Development Is in a state Is a city Produces eithertrade good: Gems Glass Does not have a special goods produced modifier Does not have Coal as latent trade goods Is not the province of Venezia (112)

Mean time to happen 1 months

no, it checks for glass or gems being the the trade good and additionally for coal not being the latent trade good. i have no idea why.

Probably because they don't want an extra goods produced modifier added to a coal province since coal's powerful enough already.
