G.E.C.K. - OWB Submod

Description
Just a quick mod I whipped up for fun to learn about decisions. You send a search party out to look for a G.E.C.K. after hearing some rumors. Multiple possible outcomes, I'm hoping to add more as I learn more complex modding techniques.

Any suggestions are welcome!

Notes:

- The first event should fire about 6-10 months from the start
- Declining to search will turn the mod off
- Four current possible outcomes, soon to be refined and expanded
- AI will search for, and use the GECK, if they decide to
- You have three opportunities to turn the mod off: The first event, after finding your first G.E.C.K., and when a search fails
- Bribery System: bribe the factions to join them. Hoping to expand this to bribing them to join your wars if you are independent(AI will never use this option and will only join factions normally. This way it should not conflict with the no faction joining mod.)


Update: 04/30/2018:
- bugs should be fixed and events are firing correctly


Update: 05/02/2018:
- changed rewards, as vertibirds weren't working
- reduced time to get events
- buffed infrastructure gain slightly
- Arroyo now starts with a G.E.C.K. to reflect the ending of Fallout 2


Update 2: 05/02/2018:
- Added simple bribe system
- Added manpower modifier while owning G.E.C.K. to reflect the knowledge it contains, you can keep it for the pop bonus, or you can use it, or use it to join a faction
- Fixed second and on searches timeframe 250 > 180 to match the normal search party
- Fixed Ambush event choices
- Fixed Pre-Reqs to send out search party, can no longer send out party with <500 manpower available

Update: 05/03/2018:
- Added NB bribe
- Turned off AI requirement for bribe so multiplayer could be tested

unfortunately not, I've not played hoi in many months, I offered up the files and the people who asked for them never got them from me. as far as I last checked there were either similar submods, or something similar was put into the base mod. I still have the files in my dropbox if anyone would like them.

Is there any plans to update this to the current versions ?

why is this mod incompatable with the enclave reborn mod it makes it so that the repeatable focuses are on top of every nations focuses and i think it mgiht not let you play as arroyo

Game crashes for me while this mod is activated, good Idea though

Suggestion, put OWB before the name of your mod, so we can find it when playing OWB...

Honestly its been about two versions of both the mod and base game since I've played. That on top of that PC being broken, and my moving to a new place, I just won't have time for a while =\ Like I said though, if he shoots me a message, I can get him the stuff he needs to continue the mod for people to enjoy!

As someone who mains the Teton Collective i find i have way too much political power in early stages, so i would like some way to use my collected political power and this mod is best suited for that, i hope this mod can in some way shape or form be worked out as this is a really interesting concept.

the issues i have found are it causing alot of crashes for an unknown reason and not giving equipment when it should.

i may actually have more of the files backed up than i previously thought, with some half built features. Do you happen to know what in particular needs fixing? I could finish up one or two of the half implemented(only in the test version rn) features, and some bugfixes and then hand it off to you
