Details:
I was proposing an alliance to another player but got a message saying "You
cannot form an alliance because you are at war with an ally of Kim Jong-Evil."
As I checked the diplomacy intel for Mr. Kim he was allied only with the Scots
leader Brain MacEvil, who in turn was allied with me. Also all nations that
had gone to war against me were already R.I.P :D
So, the message was not right. Further investiagtion revealed that in fact
Kim Jong-Evil was at war with my ally, which obviously caused the failure to
make allies with him. After I changed my diplomatic state with that ally to
armistice I could accept the alliance treaty with Kim Jong-Evil.
So, instead of
"You cannot form an alliance because you are at war with an ally of Kim
Jong-Evil."
the message should have read
"You cannot form an alliance because Kim Jong-Evil is at war with your
ally."
Might be a good idea to check all diplomacy messages while fixing this?
