(EDIT #4)
I believe that this experiment has been successful and I HAVE reached 1963. (Should work on all other mods if they don't use event IDs 9999000-9999999. My 1st event chain ever so please any critiques or pointers will be well taken. :wub: The events mark some of the major (and minor) medical inventions and breakthroughs of the early 20th Century. The bonuses awarded are rather tiny to maintain decent game balance and the events are mainly for flavour and my own little experiment. To use the event chain copy and paste the following;
event = "db\events\aar-events\medical_breakthroughs.txt" into aar-events.txt
and copy the "scientist" picture from
Games\Darkest Hour\gfx\events_pics and paste into Games\Darkest Hour\Mods\AAR\gfx\events_pics
copy and paste medical_breakthroughs into Games\Darkest Hour\Mods\AAR\db\events\aar-events OR any other mod you wish to apply this to. I currently only play AAR so will look into other mods if this
mini-chain is successful enough to warrant one. I would also like to note that unless the date is day/month/year then only the year is historically correct and that the day/month is randomly selected by me. As stated above and below if this works as well as I hope, I will expand on this event chain and add nation specifics and timelines well into the 70's for use in other mods. If the time is found "gadget_breakthroughs" will soon appear. I would also like to state that I knew almost none of the information contained in the above file before I came up with the idea. I also agree with Epaminondas that there is over representation of European and American researchers. Depending on success will also be expanded upon and I hope to add namely non-European and non-US research.
Thanks to Arcangelus' help there is a .csv version ready for use at;

I would also like to thank the DH developers who dropped in and gave me the sound advice I needed to improve the original .txt work.
