It only strikes me now, even if I've been playing the game for a long time, but... I find it strange that Alliances that I don't partake in do not show on the diplomacy screen. Well... they do show if I randomly click on other players portraits, but unlike my alliance, there is no green arc between other allied players when I am at the center of the screen.

Since there is no alert whenever another player allies with someone else, and since there is no green "alliance" arc between those players on the diplomacy screen, it's not very clear whether or not a player is actually allied.



By the way, by "arc" I mean the little green gfx that shows on the circle border between two allied players. It only shows within my alliance, which is kind of annoying :P



I even wonder if it's a bug or something.
