Ok, here is the setup to the game. It's a 3 human player game set up in team mode. So all the AI is allied against us. I have logged to HOST and changed the offending AI to human control. Logging into that player, I checked the empire screed, and there is no trade going on between the AI and Dethgod, and the Treaty grid shows WAR for both spots. So at the moment it does not look to be an obvious "diplomacy" bug.

I think what I'll do is give orders for the AI players ships to leave Dethgods homeworld sector, while changing the treaty status back to none. After I clear him out, I'll reset him back to AI control. Do you think that doing this might fix the problem? I know it's hard to tell since the issue is obviously not quite as clear cut as it first looks, at least from looking at the AI player is concerned...
