Title: diplomacy question
Post by: vonduus on November 20, 2012, 02:47:19 PM
I have some friends in my universe, a race that is called the Deviant Consciousness or something, and after 50 years of inspired diplomacy I persuaded them to ally with me. (In spite of me abusing them quite a bit early on, I killed one of their ships and pirated another one). They have no sciences I can benefit from, but they gave me a lot of survey data some time ago.

Anyway, is it safe to disband the diplomacy team that has made this happen?

Also, I haven't found their whereabouts yet. So I plan to send out some sensor ships to find them. What sensors are best for detecting the home worlds and bases of other races? And can I take it for granted, that if they lived in my surveyed worlds I would have found them with my survey ships? Both my geo and gravy survey ships have small thermal sensors, but no EM sensors.

Thanks.

Diplomacy teams only improve relations. They are not necessary to change statuses.

Of course if you blow up one of their ships, you might want a team in place to explain how it was the vile rebels/pirates/evil aliens that are certainly not us your friends/etc.
