Cascading scripts

[mroyer]

In general, is there a way to "cascade" scripts; i.e., trigger a second script if and only if a first script is triggered? I seem to recall someone somehow using Decision scripts (or something like that) to accomplish this, but I can't get my head around that logic at the moment.

Thanks for any thoughts,

Of course that is essentially how decision events work, the decision event is triggered and the subsequent events fire.

Here is an example from my mod of how a string of decisions work:

Decision 1: Germany creates a financial/facilitator relationship with Switzerland (Fall 1939) - Result Switzerland Swings Axis
Decision 2: (only fires if DE 1 = Yes, and Switzerland remains Axis leaning) Germany strengthens relationship with Portugal (Winter 1939) - Result Portugal Swings Axis
Decision 3: (only fires if DE 2 = Yes, France is surrendered, and Switzerland and Portugal remain Axis leaning) Germany establishes a trade agreement with Portugal (Summer 1941) - Result Trade Agreement established
Decision 4: (only fires if DE 3 = YES, and France is surrendered, Spain is Axis active or Axis leaning, Portugal is Allied or Axis leaning but not active, and Switzerland is Axis leaning) - Result MPP transferred to Germany (this is a matrix of different scenarios of which only 1 or none will fire on the given turn) (Winter 1941, re-checked each turn thereafter)
Decision 5: (only fires if DE 3 = YES) and DE 2 conditions are still present) Result - UK tries to reduce Axis influence in Swtizerland (Late Winter 1942)
Decision 6: (only fires if DE 1 = YES, and if Switzerland is Axis leaning) Result - UK tries to reduce Axis influence in Portugal (Spring 1942)
Decision 7: (only fires if DE 1 = YES, and Switzerland is Allied leaning) - Result - UK severes Axis relations permanently (Anytime)
Decision 8: (only 50% chance of auto firing if DE 7 = YES) - Result - Switzerland seizes German Gold reserves resulting in MPP loss (Anytime)
Decision 9: (only fires if DE 8 = Auto Fires) - Germany Declares war on Switzerland to re-seize German Gold (Anytime)
Decision 10: (only fires if DE 9 = YES) - German re-seizes German Gold (re-gains lost MPP) if Switzerland surrenders (Anytime)
Decision 11: (only fires if DE 1 = YES, and Switzerland is Axis leaning) - Result German establishes trade agreement with Switzerland (Fall 1940)
Decision 12: (only fires if DE 12 = YES and Switzerland is Axis leaning) - Result - Continuously checked event resulting in MPP gain for Germany

Nice Crispy, thanks for that - very interesting.

For my case, I was actually trying to figure out how to trigger a non-decision script to when another non-decision script is triggered. I thought someone had figured out a way to twist a decision script into effect for this, but perhaps I'm mistaken.

Here's an example of the sort of thing I'm trying to accomplish:
A nation surrenders because a surrender script is triggered. That event then triggers a national moral script for another nation to reduce it's morale.
