No Aces Events Spam

Description
DON'T YOU DARE!

Description
Tired of getting spammed about ace pilots-related events? You can now "mute" those events. When you will get the first event in the game, you will have two additional options: one for disabling the events forever and one to disable them for just a month. Don't worry, even if you won't see the events anymore, their effects (such as war stability effects) will still be applied and you will still get new aces (or lose them). While the events are disabed, you can track what happened so far in the decision tab and you can restore the events (resetting the stats) whenever you want.

Paradox added an in-game option to hide minor events pop-ups, such as ace promotions. This new function makes this mod less useful than before, despite that, the vanilla function still spam event notifications and hides all minor events, not just those about aces. So if you don't like those notifications, want to keep other minor events, or want to keep track of numeric stats about aces, this mod is still right for you.

Compatibility
This mod replaces /events/AcePilots.txt, therefore it will be incompatible with any other mod that changes that file too. It probably won't be compatible with total conversion mods such as Kaiserreich, Old World Blues, etc..

There are no plans to make compatibility patches for such mods (for now), but anyone is welcome to do so.

Notes
  • Currently updated to HOI4 1.16.*.
  • This mod change game files, therefore it is not Ironman compatible.
  • I'm not a native English speaker, please report any typo or mistake, no matter how minor. Thank you.
  • Steam Workshop ID of this mod is 2679445529. That means the local folder of this mod on your PC is ...\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\394360\2679445529.

No, I'm sorry, I didn't really experienced that many spy events at the same time to consider it an issue, at least not as severe as the aces events. So if I'm understanding it correctly, I'm guessing you want to silent the turned/captured enemy spies events while preserving their effects?
I'd need to investigate how those events are set up, but I'm not promising anything because atm I don't have any intention to include or make another mod about those. I might change mind in the future, but not right now.

However, if you want to make such a mod yourself by copying relevant part of this one, you are free to do so.

All the time the spies are captured or turned an event pop ups. when you are against the world so many enemy spies get captured/turn and it clog the screen and decision page.
But the events are integrate in the event button, who is important for alot of other events.

Do you have any plans for SPY event spam?

@TechPower$ Might be late response, but that's not entirely true. As explained in the description:

@Pacotéalargus what language do you use? This mod only has English built-in. I thought that in absence of a defined translation, the strings would default back to English, but maybe I was wrong.

Hello, I have a small problem with this mod. It works but i don't get the "ace pilot stats since muted" and the texts are weirdly written like "ace_killed_other_ace_actual.l.d-major"
Any idea ?
