The random events that happen can be manually triggered by typing in “event ????”, where the question marks are a number. For example, “event 1011” is when a scientist defects to your country.Note: Some of the events do bad things to your nation, such as worker strikes.

This will add hours of fun to the game:

1. Begin a game.
2. Save the game and remember the name.
3. Exit HOI
4. Find the Hearts of Iron directory under scenarios/save games.
5. Find the name of the game with the .eug extension - open it in wordpad.
6. If playing:

7. Either scroll down, or then search for'research_cost_app'
8. The next 4 lines will decide how long research takes. 1.000 is normal - lowering it to 0.250 will make it really fast. Do not go lower than this, as an error may occur as technologies are discovered.
Note: looking through this section and making minor tweaks can change the entire landscape of the game. Also, scrolling down further, you will find generals. Decreasing the Rank = number will promote them - a zero (0) is Field Marshall/Grand Admiral etc. Increasing the skill will make them better. Try not to go too high, as I do not know the limit of the game's logic algorithms. If you make any mistakes simply go back to step one. This does nothing to change the game itself, only your saved game.
