SOCIONOMIC WARFARE… EVENT TOTAL OVERHAUL

# APPLIED EVENTS... EVENT TOTAL OVERHAUL this project seeks a total overhaul of how events work the idea is simpleísh... the event is made up of components that define it varying vastly from antags to social events to personal activity some events may even be event chains that trigger other events upon failure, completion timeout or wharever else to best understand this idea we will define all components that exist and then make a few example events # clarifications * this is a post economica/fear and service project. mood and money and liberaly uses their ideas * chaining an event... an event consists of a template and components tied to it... to chain an event is when a component or template have a property to kick off another event as a result of conditions being met * idelogies now exist... all players are placed into them as follows if the % sign is applied it means not ALL players of that group will be picked if the event demands multiple * group - name of ideological group - shorthand name * %assistants - greytide union - gery * chap/%players with religious trait - global faith - religion * %***every department*** - ***name*** union - ***department*** * %***every race*** - ***race*** group - ***race*** * %roboticists/ RD / AI(if it has no core) - freeAI's - ai_good * %heads of staff &VIP - oligarch's community - heads * small % all crew - **generic ideology** - random * mime, clown and some gimick - entertainer's guild - entertainer * neet trait - neet community - neets * pacifist trait - pacifist's united - pacifist * %alcoholic&bartender - gang&bar alliences - alcohol * %chef&bartender - foods and drinks institute - food_drink * %mute trait & mime - silent extremists - mute # components. components are labled and templates and types have valid sokets regarding events... -certain event subtypes have incompatabilities they will be found and defined as such -certain events are effects. and they can sometimes be applied under local forms... like mail or ship/ruin. in those cases they exist as objects that hold the effect and apply it when triggered. -each component has a budget and all the components costs. as the event is built the cost builds up and the event cant pick components outside its budget... god forbid (antagification bribe>station) (mail when opened. ship/ruin whenever its time comes) (>) - chain - component with this property will generate more events after it. for its possible outcomes **huge list ahead** <details><summary> templates - an event's base </summary><blockquote> <details><summary> generic </summary><blockquote> * remote -
