The event screen

[nwinther]

HELP!!!
Can anyone help me?
I find it very stupid, that the events, that come up every tow days or so, aren't queued, so the oldest is the first to accept an "enter"click. I seem to say yes or no to far too many things, that i don't get to read.
If there's any way to queque those eventboxes PLEEASE help me.

BTW. Denmark is going to win the WC

No way to queue them I'm afraid... but you can alter the message setting so that not so many messages pop up. Just right-click on the messages that you don't want and you'll get some options...
Maybe you already knew that, but I think it's the only thing you can do to help the problem...

well, you can pause on events

AFAIK, hitting "enter" won't do anything for events with choices... so you won't actually select the wrong thing. It only works on the "OK" boxes which you can't do anything about.

Is there any way to access information when an event gives you choices?

Example - I get a choice between Stab -1 and Centralization -1, I don't recall offhand whether my centralization is already at minimum. If it is then I choose cent -1, if it's not I choose stab -1. But I cannot tell where I am on the slider.

Many other times information would be the key to making the decision and I cannot get to the information. As Russia, once, the consequences of a choice were so large that there was a scroll bar in the message, but AFAIK there is no way to activate the scroll bar...

The Cursed Enter Button

Says yes to Trade Agreements

Says yes to Alliances

And I think it says Yes to some Choice A's (not sure, though).

And no, you cannot look at your DP screen to check where your DP is. What I like to do when the choice is critical (say, a multi-effect DP extravaganza), is Alt-Tab, and open the autosave (if you save yearly), and then you can see where you are DP wise.

Hey, that's a good thought! Not bad for being drunk at work
