Format of the code examples

From EU2Wiki

In an attempt to be easy to read and understand, the code examples in the "Modding" chapters have the following style conventions:

• Important keywords are bold:

event = {
  id = 94001  # Paradox 1001
  trigger = {
    NOT = { countrysize = 30 } 
  }
  random = yes
  name = "EVENTNAME1" 
  desc = "EVENTHIST1" 
  action_a = {
    name = "OK" 
    command = { type = revolt which = -1 } 
  }
}

• Keywords that are mentioned in the accompanying text have yellow background:

event = {
  id = 94001  # Paradox 1001
  trigger = {
    NOT = { countrysize = 30 } 
  }
  random = yes
  name = "EVENTNAME1" 
  desc = "EVENTHIST1" 
  action_a = {
    name = "OK" 
    command = { type = revolt which = -1 } 
  }
}

"Random = yes" means that the event is a random type event. This means that it happens at unpredictible times. And also unlimited number of times (the non random events happens only one time and then never more).

• When a part of the code example is replaced with a symbolic name (e g it is a block of code) that is explained later in the page, it's in italic and have blue background:

event = {
  id = 94001  # Paradox 1001
  < trigger-codeblock > 
  random = yes
  name = "EVENTNAME1" 
  desc = "EVENTHIST1" 
  action_a = {
    name = "OK" 
    command = { type = revolt which = -1 } 
  }
}

• Values that are supplied by the user (coder) are sometimes marked with a green background to be distinguished from the keywords (this is not done for keywords with a very restricted set of values, e g "random" that have only "yes" and "no" as values):

event = {
  id = 94001  # Paradox 1001
  trigger = {
    NOT = { countrysize = 30 }
  }
  random = yes
  name = "EVENTNAME1" 
  desc = "EVENTHIST1" 
  action_a = {
    name = "OK"
    command = { type = revolt which = -1 }
  }
}
