[FEATURE SUGGESTION] Random Events

January 27, 2012 10:12:28 PM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

When it comes time to put the final passes of icing on this already delicious-looking cake, it would be nice to have random events occur. This would also boost the significance of choosing the "lucky" trait in sovereign design. Random events really boost the replayability of a 4x game for me.

I have to agree, Random events are fun, hopefully the engine supports this.

They're in the game, but either turned off or really rare, see: https://forums.elementalgame.com/416498

Ahh, thanks. I missed that post.

Indeed, I had not seen a random event either in my two games played so far.

Cheers!

And random events can beset to go off after a quest is completed, a building built, a tech researched, etc... 

This gives the ability to have consequences to actions taken. The world can change from the decisions you make. I guess I'd call it a nonrandom event.

This would be like finding a nugget of gold in your jelly doughnut.
