Description
|
The Current Affairs Digest tracks lasting effects caused by game events.

Page Changes
|
Persistent Events are added to the CAD when a page describes an event as "Persisting as" some clearly marked text. (eg "This event Persists as 'flooble klooble'.", or "...as this paragraph:")
This string may contain parameters - strings enclosed in square brackets, [thus]. Parameters (including their brackets) are replaced by the text they describe before the page is created, in a grammatically correct manner. For example, "[the administrator]" becomes "Jef" at the time of writing. Any square brackets in a Parameter's value are ignored. If any Parameter's name contains any square brackets, or the string contains any non-matched square brackets prior to substitution, the event containing the "Persisting as" clause fails.
Once Parameter substitution is complete, a Persistent Event is created in the CAD, with the smallest permitted number as its title, the page describing the event that Persisted as its Source, and the fully-substituted string as its text. A Persistent Event's precedence is initially the same as that of the page that describes it.
Persistent Events may only be removed by events described as doing so in a page. The Persistent Event or Events to be removed may be specified in any manner, as long as all Persistent Events are clearly either included in the set or not.
Persistent Events may not be modified.
