Open boarder

[Minor Annoyance]

What does it do?

[SnowFox5]

Both nations that sign it will be able to go into the others land, its like letting someone use your "roads" and you get to use their's

actually, no, you are wrong... open boarder increases the amount of money you get from trade agreements.

Allegedly, an Open Border Agreement gives a 30% bonus on your trade with the other empire. Which would make sense.

Also, seems to make spy insertion into each others' empires easier. Which would be a nice counter-result to the trade boost.

A Non-Aggression Pact will allow you to travel through their systems without fighting, and also allow your freighters to ship food and minerals to and from planets of yours separated by his systems. Of course, any isolated colonies could be in resource trouble if he cancels the NAP.

ok, but when I agree to one I have moved into their lanes and they don't seem to care.

Some races won't attack you, as long as you don't attack them.

Harvesters will always attack.

But if you have some treaties and good relations, they won't attack you unless you attack them.
