Just an observers comment. If you check the in-game Pretender list, you will probably see that Lanka are AI (rather than Human). The list of natons that appears on the llamaserver status screen is a list of non-AI nations in the game. So if a nation in the game doesn't appear there, then they are either AI or have been eliminated.

Once a nation is AI, there is no way to un-do the order unless you roll-back the game to the turn the "Become Computer Controlled" order was set. It is of course up to the admin and players whether or not to do that.


The only other thing to do is put the Lanka player on your quitters list. Since he/she has choosen to do the classic "bailing to the AI without asking or giving notice" tactic, which you will see so many players talk hatred and annoyance about on these (and other) forums. As it is one of the most selfish things a player can do in the game, as it can and often does seriously disrupt the balance of games. And maybe think twice in the future about letting him/her play in any games you are playing in or organising.
