Summary0015093: Illogical Solar Axis formation
DescriptionThe Skylaxians had three planets and were at war with the Evucks (actually nearly everyone). The Evucks captured a Skylaxian planet. They then went straight from war to Allies in the Solar Axis. While it may be in keeping with the exact wording of the Pact, it seems like a strange interpretation.

i think that the races who are going to form the SAP should need to have at least neutral relations (0) with each other in order to form the pact (though really a positive mutual relation would be more thematic given how hard it is to get our federation started!)... this would stop issues like the one reported here by warpstorm.

perhaps if the races have less than the required mutual relation to form the pact then they could start to 'discuss creating the SAP', which could be modeled by a positive boost to their relations every month while the pact is under discussion. When the required relation levels are hit, the SAP forms. This would introduce some interesting possibilities for the player to disrupt the progress towards this alternative alliance... and might just allow him to buy time to get one of the two races into his federation instead.

What were their mutual attitudes at the time? That is something that does matter, or is supposed to. Any details or a savegame would be appreciated.

IIRC, they were around zero (I think one may have been slightly negative). They weren't at hatred or anything like that. The thing that got me was that the two players in question were in the middle of a war at the time and rather than the Skylaxians being angry about the Evucks capturing a planet of theirs, they became allies and were on better terms from then on.

At the start of combat Skylaxians had 3 worlds and Evucks 1. After combat they both had 2 worlds and became allies.

For 1.019:

* Certain alliances (Solar Axis Pact, Thoraxian Protectorate, Union of Independent States) will no longer accept (via initial formation or expansion) races that have recently been at war with any of its members.

Thanks :)
