For 0.821:

* Changed the requirements of ceasefire from "the race you're talking to must have attacked the other race in the last X turns" to "the race you're talking to must be in an active incident on opposite sides from the other race".

Thanks :)

I have to admit I thought cesfireing was for you and the race targeted now that ive thought about it properly though that doesn't exactly make séance still im happy to have helped with this problem.(even if it was semi accidental)

The message should probably be changed to: "Broker Truce for another Race"

indeed labelling it as ceasefire might confuse some people.

Although "truce" and "ceasefire" technically mean the same thing (a temporary break from active warfare), I've most often seen "truce" referring to a formal diplomatic effort to end hostilities and "ceasefire" indicating a shorter-term respite from flying munitions to give people a chance to do things that can't be done while they're being shot at.

From the description in the changelog, I think "ceasefire" is more appropriate term, but "truce" certainly isn't incorrect.

your quite right although I still think it should be changed to what ptarth suggested I don't think that would really confuse anybody. ps truces can temporary as well its just that their usually set much longer than ceasefires
