Diplomacy Screen Problem
Hi guys, I just started playing this game again, and I have a problem...

I am currently in a war with the English (they declared on me after I refused to give them Monarchy). The problem is, they're not on my diplomacy screen! All I can talk to are the French, Zulus, and Aztecs.... no English. I took three cities already, and I want to get on with it by declaring peace with them, but I can't!

What can I do?

Hmmm, I'll try that, but it's very weird, I think I even had them on the screen at one point, but they disappeared.

They have contacts with the French and Zulus too, and I can't trade with them for it, so clearly, I'm supposed to get it, except I don't.

I'm not to sure why that would happen.


Did it say that the English just didn't want to acknowledge you. Or is it just not at the selection for diplomacy?

If you're playing with more than 8 civs, the "extra" ones won't appear in the diplomacy screen. You can swap visible civs by shift right-clicking on one of the portraits and choosing a new civ from the menu.

If you have PTW or C3C you should see a tab for more civs to select one of the others to swap with.

Also try the little 'd' on the info panel - it'll offer you talks with any civs, in the form of 'button - name'

You can also dbl-clk on an English unit and select, "Take me to your Leader."

If on the Diplomacy screen (F4), hold down the Shift key and right-click on any leader, you should be given the option of selecting another civ. Only 8 heads will show at one time.

If checking Diplomacy from the Info Pannel, (the little "D" to the right), all civs should show-up on that list.

I had the same problem on a small map with only 5 civs. The Zulus never appeared on the diplomacy screen. So when I needed to talk to them I had to right click one of his units. Since they were on the opposite side of the map I have to leave a unit in his territory.

I thought it was a glitch with my computer. I have not seen it since.

What version of the game was this, MarshalN? And have you installed the Beta patch for C3C if it is C3C? This may be a bug to report.
