This is a short scene, probably 10-15 second gag. I believe it's an earlier episode based on my post in the American dad subreddit, multiple other people seem to remember what I'm talking about but none of us can identify the episode!

This event chain is bad, everyone knows it, its well documented, I've been waiting for a fix for a year so I could play joseon so here it is please steal it and do not credit me I do not care I just want to play joseon. I tried setting it off in ironman for 20+ irl hours and couldn't do it with file reading and intense savescumming for the record.

The biggest problem is that it checks children against the number of conspirators to reach the 25% (and that it only flips 10% of characters but thats arguably balance instead of bug so I'll focus on the child issue)

The fix is changing the assassination event check logic to match the "execute member of the court" logic. It will stop misleading players, it will make sense and follow your internal convention.

All you have to do is make this change to fix the children blocking coup issues.

676: trigger = {
677:     any_character = {
678:         has_variable = potential_conspirator_variable
679:         percent > 0.25
680:     }
681:     NOT = { has_variable = recent_assassination_variable }
682: }676: trigger = {
677:     any_character = {
678:         has_variable = potential_conspirator_variable
679:         percent > 0.25
680:     }
681:     NOT = { has_variable = recent_assassination_variable }
682: }

to

any_character = {

is_alive = yes

is_adult = yes

is_ruler = no

is_regent = no

has_variable = potential_conspirator_variable

percent > 0.25

}

And for consistency change these because the descriptions suck

Also, this is just suggestion but please just make the start of the event flip more characters, 10 is abysmally low. Like what even is the threat of a coup. Assuming coup is supposed to be bad you should have to kill a ton of your theoretically important characters to preserve your government. At least give us a coinflip of 25% of characters flipping on start and make it so new characters that matured or joined your court through marriage or whatever have the same chance of coming in as a conspirator.

Hire me or steal my ideas please paradox

I am playing denmark and I don't see anywhere that this modifier impacts anything. I hovered everything you can see in the proximity tooltips.

I'm making an app and adding colorblind mode to it so warnings and statuses can be clearly displayed, and I'm asking you guys:

What colors would evoke these for you and what kind of colorblindness do you have? Hex would be useful but obviously you don't have to do that.

Without CB mode it's green / red / yellow for reference, and the only colors off the table are black and white.
