Why Random Life Events Happen
This page explains one part of the game. It is an independent copy, not the official site. The life itself starts on this language’s homepage.
The order inside a year
The year advances, the game gathers events whose conditions match, and then it draws among those candidates. An event whose conditions fail is not waiting behind the screen.
Age is only the first gate
The sample below is limited to events whose age range and condition were read in the source. It is not the whole list, and it has no rate, because the rate depends on the life already in progress.
| Field | Group | Ages in the source | Condition that was checked |
|---|---|---|---|
| vax | Childhood | 0-1 | Only if this life has not already recorded a vaccination. |
| steps | Childhood | 1 | Age 1. No extra gate in the source line. |
| word | Childhood | 1-2 | Ages 1 to 2, and only if the first word is not already recorded. |
| kidsick | Health | 0-4 | Ages 0 to 4. The chance uses the place’s under-five figure and the household. It is not certain. |
| stunt | Health | 1-4 | Ages 1 to 4, and only when under-five deaths in the file are above 40 per 1,000 and the household is not high. |
| hungry | Family | 0-17 | Ages 0 to 17 when the place’s ppp is under 6,000 and the household is low. Not every poor place, and not every year. |
| fam_books | Family | 2-7 | Ages 2 to 7 when the household is high or the place’s ppp is high, and a parent is present. |
| kid_water | Childhood | 5-12 | Ages 5 to 12, rural, a low-income place, a low household, and only in some regions. |
| exam | School | 15-18 | Ages 15 to 18 and only in the secondary-school state. Knowledge, a study focus and a random term all enter the check. |
| wedding | Family | 13-50 | The source allows ages 13 to 50, then keeps only a band around the place’s modeled age at marriage. It can repeat only after a gap, and it is not certain. |
No place matches that search.
School and work
The exam row runs only in the secondary-school state, at 15 to 18. A job offer has its own pool and filters. Being the right age is not enough.
Family events
Books at bedtime, hunger and marriage in the sample each require a household or a place condition. A high relationships score does not unlock all of them.
Illness and history
Childhood illness uses the under-five figure. Historical events need a past year, and this copy cannot run that year without era.js. Do not treat a simulated event as a historical fact.
When a decision is on screen
Pause holds the year. Set aside ▾ hides the window and does not undo a choice. The choice page explains that control.
Auto mode picks inside the same event
Auto mode does not create extra events. It chooses among the options that are already there, and it is not always the first button.
You cannot force the same event
There is no seed box and no button that guarantees a named event. Two lives in the same place can still diverge.
Why it was missing
Usually a condition failed. Sometimes it was drawn and lost.
Why was there no school event?
The age or the school state did not match, or the draw went elsewhere.
Can the same event repeat?
Only if that event’s own rule allows another year. Many set a flag and never return.
Do past years add events?
They can, when era.js is present. It is not present here.
