Here's an extract from the data.cmp file (last two scenarios in the campaign).
I've checked the Lamao scenario, it is set up correctly.
Why do the cabcaben event title/txt/graphic trigger at the end of the Lamao scenario instead of the Cabcaben scenario?
The game then moves to the last scenario, Cabcaben.

[Lamao]
location = -1.879, -6.692
scenario = Lamao
result = -2,-2,-2,12,12

[Cabcaben]
location = -2.983, -7.099
scenario = Cabcaben
result = -2,-2,-2,-1,-1
event = event_cabcaben_title, event_cabcaben_text, event_cabcaben

Thanks

Defined like this, the event should pop up when the Cabcaben branch is reached. Is that not what it's doing?

Nope, I want the events to trigger after the last scenario has ended with a minor/major victory.
The event concludes the campaign.

I've tested this again and as far as I can tell it's working as intended.

But if you want different outcome messages you have to use different (negative) result values and assign different text & image to these.

I need some help here, how do I set up the event items to trigger after the last scenario has finished?

You just want different outcome messages depending on minor/major victory I assume? Those pop up automatically if the next branch number is a negative value.

This stuff was explained here:

Unless it still isn't clear? The negative number is just a value used in the outcome and text entry and image filename (with the minus removed). it's up to you to decide what that text says and what the image shows.

Nope. I want one set of event items to trigger for minor/major defeat & draw and another one for minor/major victory.
The main point is I want them to trigger after the last scenario is finished, and I don't know where to put these events since they are triggered at the start of the scenario they're attached too.

I find the juggling of positive/negative numbers in the editor and in txt files confusing.
I try to glean some info from the stock campaigns, but the game has a habit of doing something different than expected whenever I try to edit campaign stuff.
Sorry, the old thread was confusing to me the first time and a re-read didn't help
Too bad, since the editor is usually quite intuitive (with a bit of event stuff thrown in).

This will create an event with image outcome_1, outcome_2, outcome_3, outcome_4, outcome_5 + text message outcome_1_title/text, outcome_2_title/text, outcome_3_title/text, outcome_4_title/text, outcome_5_title/text for major defeat, minor defeat, draw, minor victory and major victory respectively.

Thanks, I'll experiment some more.

Erik by reading this conversation I think I know where the source of confusion comes from.

Events associated to scenarios pop up at scenario start and are defined in data.cmp file.

Outcomes should be defined in text_english.txt file.

Yes, you're right.
I had modeled the campaign info on my last Philippines scenario on your last WInter War, but only in the data-file.
