How does a pop-up message appear?

[Agis Tournas]

I am playing DLV 5.73 (as faction: elo) and I am using the following script in order to have BAUDOUIN IV of Jerusalem (the King) dead on the historical accurate date (1185)

monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionIsLocal
and I_TurnNumber = 10 ; year 1185
if I_LocalFaction elo
and I_CharacterExists BAUDOUIN4
kill_character BAUDOUIN4
end_if
end_monitor

The script has been tested and is working fine
The problem is that when the king dies the pop-up message - informing us that the king is dead - does not show up.
Could someone give me some help?

Thank you in advance
Agis

If you can, please post the proposed script...

Thank you

What you need is a historic_event. Edit the historic_events.txt file in the text folder, you will see how they are laid out. Then make your script look like this:

monitor_event FactionTurnStart FactionIsLocal
and I_TurnNumber = 10 ; year 1185
if I_LocalFaction elo
and I_CharacterExists BAUDOUIN4
kill_character BAUDOUIN4
historic_event name_of_event
end_if
end_monitor

Understood!
But I suppose that there is a vanilla event for the death of the faction leader...
Which is this?
Do you happen to know?

Im not sure, but its either in historic_events or descr_events.
