Minor Factions

Hi and merry xmas to all :)

This is my 1st post at this community and my english is not so good, so forgive my mistakes.

I´m having some issues with the minor factions of the game.(NOT the Adven, Vasari, Human).  At the first stages of the game they work fine, i arrive to their planets and they attack me but after some time or even during a battle, their ships just stops attacking me, like I am invisible to them. I am even not allowed to attack their planets or ships. When I click on their ships they have some icons to give orders to them, like they are my allies ¿?

Someone can explain me if that is a bug or some science I have investigated. If this is not a bug...Someone can explain me how this policy works? Why they become allies sudenly? Can I revert that?

Thanks all for your time.

Greetings.

No problem, it is good enough.

Are you playing as the TEC (also known as Human) Rebels? They have a tech called "Truce Amongst Rogues" in their Diplomacy research tree. This makes the "Minor Factions" (also known as Militia) and the Pirates your allies. Usually this is a good thing as you do not have to kill them and they will guard your planets, but if are playing on a map where the militia control planets you may not want to research this tech.

I´m afraid that was the problem :/ I was, indeed, playing as Tec Rebel and I had that tech researched. Tought was a bug :/ By all means, thanx a lot for your time and answer. time to enjoy Rebellion :D

Can I revert that?

You might be able to revert it by scuttling civic research stations until you have less than 4 (or however many are required to research it, I think it's 4). I've never tested that though.

Truce Amongst Rogues will work even if you scuttle your labs, so it's not possible to revert it without some kind of modding

That's not good, it could be exploited! :O

As TEC rebels, I'm going to research it and then scuttle labs and still have it! }:)
