Historical Events Question

[peterofnj]

I have a question on historical events. Does anyone know when the event 'Philosophy is foppish' is suppose to happen? Does it says Philosophy is foppish or does it say philosophy is banned during in game?

The historical events that pop up are just illustrations that have no effect on the game, with the exceptions being the eruption of Etna and the plague in Macedonia. Treat them as a history teacher telling you interesting tidbits about this period of history.

Thanks Pannonian, I agree with what you said. The reason why I'm asking the question is because prior to patch 1.5, the string in hisorical_event.txt were different for two of them. The first being through a glass clearly and the second being philosophy is foppish. I have tested it and I know having the wrong string here will cause a CTD. The first one I can confirm for patch 1.5 is indeed through a glass clearly, the second one I don't know if I missed it or haven't happen yet. I'm testing this in game and had gone through over a hundred years with seven living factions remaining. Progress is very slow.

That's interesting...those different strings can cause real problems.

Here's how to figure out when an event happens: the number next to it is the number of years into the game it occurs. IIRC it starts in 280 B.C., so just add the year number to that.
