Default Re: Petition to change LUCK\\ORDER Scales

Yeah, I forgot, but that's true too... luck+3 is not very useful on huge maps, since the number of events per turn is capped (at 3, right?) no matter how many provinces you own, while income/magic sites increase linearly with province ownership. If events also increased linearly with province ownership - and I see no reason why that should not be the case - luck scale would become more important.

The more I think about it, though, the more I think order should stop affecting the probability of events, or affect it way less (5% per tick, instead of seemingly 25% per tick). Then you could set order and luck independantly, and choose settings other than 3 order, -3 luck or -3 order, 3 luck. Also, luck/unluck scales increasing events would be nice.
If events increased linearly you would drown in events. Events would then be commonplace and more annoying. Your suggestion would not make events more important, just change the importance over time. Now events are important initially, perhaps too much so.

Also: The chance of a second and third event is dependent on the number of provinces you own.
