Um, I've been buying 1 food boom and getting 2.

Even says on the bonus page " you've spent 6 points and gained 2 food events"

Don't know if it's just me :p

Booms are worth 3 points, but you have to buy them in pairs

no what kingme is saying is he got a food drought event when he was supposed to get his turn 2 out of food boom event form bonus that overrode his bonus.

ya, it probably should guarantee you don't get other events if you "force" an event with the bonus points

i think someone else already fixed this -- the code looks fine and I can't get it to run the "random event" code when an event is forced.

i'll chat with slag since he coded this initially, but it all looks like it should work as expected (i.e., not override the bonus events)
