This is a fairly comprehensive diplomacy mod. It:

• Has a peace, war and alliance system
• Allows players to see when war declarations, peace offers, etc. were made
• Has specific card settings
• Can prevent AIs from attacking

Diplomacy statuses

There are 3 levels of diplomacy statuses between players: allied, at peace and at war. At the start of the game, all players are at peace with each other.

Allied

While two players are at allied, they can not attack each other. If they try to attack each other, the order will be skipped and they will remain allied. The game host can decide if allied players can view each others territories. If a card can only be played on enemies but a player tried to play it on someone who they are allied with, the order will be skipped and they will remain allied. The game host can also decide if all alliances are public. If alliances are public, all players will be able to see who's allied with who.

Peace

While two players are at peace, they can not attack each other. If they try to attack each other, the order will be skipped and they will remain at peace. If a card can only be played on enemies but a player tried to play it on someone who they are at peace with, the order will be skipped and they will remain at peace. The game host can decide if players at peace with each other can view each others territories.

War

While two players are at war, they can attack each other.

Configurable settings

The game host has a lot of options:

AI settings

• Can be played on enemies

If a card can only be played on enemies but a player tried to play it on someone who they are at peace with, the order will be skipped and they will remain at peace.
