SEV- Thread on Trading Ideas

The whole treaty system needs to be revised, of course. No more of this rigid scale of non-aggression, trade, trade & research, etc. Each options should be completely independent. If I want ONLY to trade intelligence points with someone but NOT grant them the right to send ships running all over my territory I ought to be able to do this.

This would be a great addition/revision. Would make for much greater realism in regards to trade. As you say, Baron, just because I need resources and establish a trade treaty for them, does not mean I have granted you permission to colonize in my systems or bypass my mined warp points and other such territorial defenses. My space is exactly that, MY space.

And...

For those situations where you want to give lots of resources to an ally there ought to be a 'foreign aid' treaty that just gifts so much resources (or even research points or intel points) per turn.
