To be honest, it seems the team is developing a much more sophisticated "diplomacy" system, by showing different kinds of war. You have the quasi-war of the PA sending small fleets to attack (which I'm really fond of as a concept, it just tests you while you're fending off the larger forces of other factions), and then the more violent actions of other factions.

On a related note, maybe faction aggression could die down if you don't fight them for a period of time? Would it be possible to have the enemy faction notice when you have fleets on the border, and thus force you to keep large fleets away from border systems?

Not in this form. It wasn't especially fun or engaging.

Is this still being considered?

An interesting idea; I was missing the diplomacy feature from Rebellion when I first got Empire at War (and Forces of Corruption), and I remember seeing some commented out stuff in the XML files for it. Never got around to trying it, though. Seeing it in Imperial Civil War, if not already voted against earlier, would be interesting idea, too.

Everything seems to work fine, if you're still working on it. The AI tends to go for the same planet first on each of my games (generally testing on Origin of Corruption), but it could just be rotten luck as afterwards it seems completely random.

Nice job, Pox.

I know this may be a stretch, but if anyone has played star wars rebellion pc game (not FF board game), as the Empire and you had the death star in a sector, you got a boost on all planets. I understand we dont have those type of weapons, but maybe a fleet in a troublesome sector may boost influence.

That's what I figured, EAW is a great game but it is severely limiting at times and I assumed that this was the case on how the factions were coded. Thanks for the answer

You actually can change it with LUA, but the bigger problem is that directly tagging factions as neutral or allied causes a lot of weird bugs, since the game wasn't designed with that kind of interaction in mind.

not possible. Diplomatic relations are set for factions as a whole.
We can set two factions to be allies, but then you can never change them to be enemies, and this is not even on a GC basis, but a global one.
If IR and NR are allies, they have to be allies in every single GC for example.

I have a quick question, could you ever program it into the files where you can actually ally with another empire in the game? Like make it where you have all your diplomats at the enemy capital and have them have the ability to make an alliance with the other empire for let's say 150,000-200,000 credits? That's a high value but you could basically hard code it where all the other empire's units, buildings, and planets now are under the faction that purchased the ability, you could also tie this in with story elements. Such as how heroes could leave factions or new heroes could pop up based on their thoughts of the new alliance. And it would provide a precarious situation for the player as they have to save up all those credits while also keeping your territory locked down. This could be a major late game boost, but you could also implement it where AI factions could ally with other AI factions which as a player would leave me with a sense of dread.

This is only a thought and this sounds great in concept but it probably would be a nightmare to code, I don't know, I just wish EAW had more interaction and that your interactions towards other factions had a lot more weight. But it's whatever, your idea fr diplomacy sounds good! And I like the idea as a whole

if you want more suggestions for diplomacy try AoTR, which has a great diplomacy system with sectors and rebels being able to incite rebellion. try it and see what else you find
