IntroductionThe base script used in the example is from GED's resource which can be found here. TPY scripts typically use the FactionIsLocal condition to trigger the script at PreFactionTurnStart. Which is a problem in a hotseat as there a multiple local factions. While the idea of using an AI faction instead has seemingly merit it will not work as intended: the game always processes local factions before AI factions which means changes will happen after the players turn. The solution to this is to use event counters to restrict the number of times this script will fire per turn. Please note that event counters do not need to be declared as they exist with a zero value, even before you have thought of them The script will, for obvious reasons, work just fine for single player games as well.
