Re: Giving & Receiving gifts
3 steps? only two. three turns, perhaps - but the same is true for gifts. attend:
turn 2401.0: i transmit a message offering a trade
turn 2401.1: you see the trade message, and transmit acceptance
turn 2401.2: the items are transfered, and i find out that you stiffed me, because you didnt actually have the tech you promissed.
this is the EXACT SAME ammount of time that it takes to transfer a gift. the only thing that happens the same turn that it is accepted, is a treaty.
