Civil War - How do I make peace?
« on: March 20, 2019, 04:40:28 am »

Heya architects of steel and booze,

It so happened that the diplomat who came from my parent Civ went straight to the tavern to get his drink on, when a disgusting human filth that couldn't handle the alcohol got into a fight with him.

Long story short, diplomat is dead and the hooman is rotting in my dungeons. But unfortunately I now find myself in a war with my parent civ. This caused some nice loyalty cascade brawls in my fort, which made my dworfs stronger through natural selection.

However, I now find myself without caravans or migrants for some years. I would like some fresh blood, supplies and to lure the monarch.

How can I make peace? Either ingame or by 'cheating'.

Thanks in advance!

I think the only option to end a war (peacefully) with any civ is waiting for them to propose a peace deal. No idea what could trigger that or at least increase the chances of it happening, though.

I believe someone managed to hack it by changing the relation value of the civ versus itself (I think), but I don't have the details. Ought to be in a post somewhere on the forum, probably this year.

Can I edit the save or is there some DFHack plugin I could use?

It would involve using DFHack's gui/gm-editor to locate and modify the correct info. If you can do that, you can instead write a script to perform the same action, but I don't think anyone has done that.
