Now can anyone help me work out why only Quaestor works, and can anyone suggest a set of triggers that would mean you have to have one rank before the next, except for Pontifex Maximus which will be independent of the rest.

[BrandonM]

I think it's the Turns Alive < lines. Qaestor is the only one that doesn't have it.
It's probably not working like you think it is.

[Lusted]

Quaestor does have that line, its missing the turnsalive > line, ill try it without that, i've tried some other triggers with moderate success ill post back here to see if it works or not.

[Lusted]

Nvm, i've sorted it out myself, this can be closed.

[Lusted]

Right, i could still use some help with the triggers, the offices are working fine, its just characters do not really progress through them, any ideas on better triggers?
