Promotion Event?! Were leaving to many great ppl out !!

[Aki Mackensen]

One of the things I would very to at least know if it´s possible is this :

- Is it possible to add some kind of sleep leader event to bring lower ranked officers to play ( some kind of promotion event )??

For instance from time to time, or some kind of trigger ( a battle perhaps I don´t know if the game accepts this as a trigger or not ), a new low-rank officer would appear. It would be possible to bring those great aces in to play, or the veteran tank coommanders, it would be great to see haow they would perform as generals ...

*Note* I don´t know if sleep leader events works in this way, i´m still trying to learn some very basic things in the way things work in this game... If not I woud thank anyone who might tell me how it work,thanks!

a new low-rank officer would appear.

Which you have to add to the leader files.

The trigger is only capable to check, if a leader is still alive, NOT his rank. So when you create skill increase events, they will apply regardless of the leader rank. You have

trigger = {
leader = XXXXX
}

and

command = { type = set_leader_skill which = XXXXX value = X }

not enough overall.

Well, if we're considering germany, the "Old Guard Resigns" event is the perfect way to bring all that talent to the front. Having Skill 5 or Skill 6 Fieldmarshals is definitely satisfying, and its comforting to know that the army is in good hands.

I never got that event !!! U mean there´s a way to get those old lamers out of the way!! How? is it a event already in the game or was it "made by someone"? if so where do I get it.! Can anyone tell me more about this event?

You got it. With a few tries it will work.

command = { type = set_leader_skill which = 230 value = 5 }

230 is Rommel and his skill will be set to 5. Simply put this line into your event.

Ok have pics for most of them, still need a few if someone could give me the ones I lack...*means I have

Now, I want to create them, but in a way they will be "dorment" , a few appearing randomly others in a given date, how do i do it ? Don´t know to make dorment, or the both the triggers ...help here

Then they would be available in the list, already mj generals Ready to use

About the promotion event, it was made already ?? By who?? It isn´t very clear is it done or not ?
If not a little help, how do I link the promotion( skill increase ) to a leader, I want it randomly or do I have to do one for each leader...Geeeshhh!! hope not ? Or even somehow try to link it to battles ( maybe and probably to ambitious I think it won´t be possible )

Please excuse all this work, if I make it work I´ll make the files available to everyone k ?!
