Gotta be a bug. Moved an invasion fleet and attacked a Thalan planet. The Torians immediatly declared war on me. OK fine. I invaded the afore mentioned planet and had a couple ships parked outside of the planet. The torians skooted a transport fleet past me, lesson learned, watch out for warp 5 transports. They invaded the planet I just took from the thalans.
Now here is the bug.... 2 more Torian transports entered the same solar system, I destoyed them and suddenly this was an act of war againts the Torians??? All the major races suddenly declared war on me. Helooo they just invaded my planet and we were already at war. I never made peace!
Has this happened to anyone. I think the fault in the Algorythm is that the torians entered war based on their alliance with the thalans but a stae of war flag was never switched on while they were attacking me.
