    There is a problem with using this kind of script. While the script is running the player cannot load or save, and once the script halts it will not start up again. It will only be run once when the campaign first starts.

    Scripts that get started with descr_strat.txt can really only be used to set things up in the first turn, or maybe to control things in the very early game.

    You can start up scripts durring the campaign by using the advice system, but that requires intervention by the player.

    Judging from his first post I imagine he's using this script:
    Code:
    monitor_conditions I_NumberOfSettlements romans_julii > 30
    and RandomPercent < 10
    
    console_command diplomatic_stance romans_julii romans_senate war
    
    terminate_monitor
    end_monitor
    terminate_script

    All very true, the alternatives are to either do it as a background script in which case you have to manually reactivate it each time you reload before it happens, or as an event script where the advisor would pop up to tell you you'd been outlawed, but unless you pressed the show me how button it wouldn't take effect.
