In events where several random conversions take place, they will sometimes convert the same province several times despite having other non-religion provinces readily available.

I would call it a missing feature. These things are scripted, and the scripts have options "-1" for a random province, "-2" for the capital, and "-3" for the same province as in the line before.
What is missing is the fourth option, "any province but the one before".
Shouldn't be difficult to implement, but I doubt that it will be done.

And the fewer the provinces you have that are not the state religion, the more likely the random choice will be the same one again.

But we can safely call it a bug? I am aware it will likely not get fixed in the near future. I'm just asking because I need some backup for my argument to get the effects edited since they aren't working as they are supposed to. :D

Considering that you wanted to use a French event concerning the expulsion of PROTESTANTS from mainland France to the Netherlands and Brandenburg to convert FIVE MUSLIM AFRICAN provinces, I doubt that you will find much support, really. :p

Did it drop the basic tax value of the province by -2 (as intended) or by -8?

Your solution would not work as you intend, since in an event like this, "any province but the one before" could easily just apply to two provinces in turn, back and forth. Given that the -1 option for the conversion event is clever enough to know whether a province is state religion or not, what is needed is the the -1 to be fretested after each conversion within the single event. This might also help some other bits of script in the game as well.

I don't know how easy this would be to implement.

re: Owen and Ilkhold - what do you propose if a country struck by an event has fewer provinces than the event assumes (I mean, I would expect you propose that the remaining, say conversions, are simply scrapped - my question is: how do you propose to implent it)?

A simple (though ugly) solution woiuld be to cascade the Huguenot events.
Event 1 - converts one province, triggers event 2
Event 2 (same text) - converts one province triggers event 3
Event 3 (same text) - converts one province, triggers event 4
Event 4 (same text) - converts one province, triggers event 5
Event 5 (same text) - converts one province, triggers the othe events from the original event.

This would then allow the revocation of protestant right in France to make most of North Africa Catholic, at the minor cost of having 5 events where one might suffice. Also addresses robin's concern.

Unless you're CRC (and yes, event #3128 will be triggered if you're CRC, too), in which case you can still have all five events firing in the same province.

But that's a different bug altogether.
