New at events and need help

[smily132]

I have just started trying to make a mod and i'm making a simple civil war event for greece that looks like below. I will edit stuff like names and descriptions later but for now I just wanted to get the basics down. I edited the spanish civil war event (as you probably can clearly see). For some reason the event won't go off though and I need your help.

Thanks in advance



#########################################################################
# Spanish Civil War - Follow up event - Ceding oversea provinces to SPA
#########################################################################
event = {
id = 11000
random = no
country = GRE


name = "EVT_11000_NAME"
desc = "EVT_11000_DESC"
style = 0
picture = "SCW"

action_a = {
name = "OK" # En la Defensa de la Democracia!
command = { type = secedeprovince which = U11 value = 535 }
command = { type = secedeprovince which = U11 value = 411 }
command = { type = secedeprovince which = U11 value = 412 }
}
}

You need a trigger of some kind.

Oh i see *looks into spanish civil war events*

#########################################################################
# Spanish Civil War
#########################################################################
event = {
id = 11001
random = no
country = GRE

trigger = {
NOT = {
exists = U11
}
atwar = no
OR = {
government = communist
government = democratic
}
}

name = "EVT_3100_NAME"
desc = "EVT_3100_DESC"
style = 0
picture = "SCW"

date = { day = 17 month = january year = 1936 }

action_a = {
name = "OK" # En la Defensa de la Democracia!
command = { type = set_domestic which = democratic value = 7 }
command = { type = set_domestic which = political_left value = 6 }
command = { type = civil_war which = U11}

command = { type = trigger which = 11000}
}
}



#########################################################################
# Spanish Civil War - Fascist Nation
#########################################################################
event = {
id = 11002
random = no
country = U11

trigger = {
event = 11001
event = 11000
}

name = "EVT_11002_NAME"
desc = "EVT_11002_DESC"
style = 0
picture = "SPA_fascist"

date = { day = 18 month = january year = 1936 }
# date = { day = 11 month = january year = 1936 }
# offset = 3
# deathdate = { day = 30 month = december year = 1947 }

action_a = {
name = "OK" # Anarchism and Communism must fall!

command = { type = set_domestic which = democratic value = 2 }
command = { type = set_domestic which = political_left value = 3 }


command = { type = supplies value = 5000 }
command = { type = oilpool value = 25000 }
command = { type = metalpool value = 25000 }
command = { type = energypool value = 50000 }
command = { type = rarematerialspool value = 25000 }
command = { type = manpowerpool value = 500 }
}
}


I'll get back to you and see if this works


Edit: Still no luck

In what file did you put the events?

 

[Filou]

Did you create the U11 country?
The civil was command only works if there is a potential revolter inside the territory, so you need to add U11 to the revolt.txt file with provinces covering all or most of Greece.

So start off by modding U11 to have it's minimum list be provinces 535, 411 and 412 in the revolt.txt file. That way when your civil war event 11001 fires U11 will have those 3 provinces, plus it might get some extra ones.
This also makes your event 11000 obsolete.

@ Filou: I already had this in Revolt.txt

U11 = { # communist greece
date = { day = 1 month = january year = 1936 }
expirydate = { day = 30 month = december year = 1954 }
minimum = { 392 412 411 }
extra = { 393 402 403 405 400 398 395 394 396 }
capital = 411
}

I think you will need to edit inc copy of Arma/scenarios/1936/greece.inc file as well for Civil War command to function:

#####################
# Country main data #
#####################

country =
{ tag                    = GRE
  regular_id             = U11
