Easier to make peace?

[Samurai99]

Hi,

In my Last game, I got into a war with two empires really fast, but then we sort of went our separate ways and had no more battles or even had ships in the same system for years and years. Yet they would never agree to end the war, even thought their mood eventually went to the most friendly level.

Is there any way to mod the game to make the AIs more acceptable to ending wars? I guess it shouldn't be *too* easy, but when you go through like 200 turns with no contact, there has to be a point where they would be willing to enter a non-aggression pact, not to mention a trade treaty.

Thanks in advance.

The default setting is no treaty for 50 turns after a declaration of war, IIRC.

Easiest thing is to just not start wars in the first place
