Exploration Treaties in Crusade- How Many?

from GalCiv3 Forums

I think that sometime in the past the maximum number of exploration treaties a player could have was reduced to one because of problems they caused.  Is the maximum number one or not?  I ask because I have a game (Crusade 2.323 Opt-In) with 3 active at the same time.

All of these treaties exist because three different AI initiated a trade and offered an exploration treaty as part of the deal.  I accepted in every case.

Am I wrong about exploration treaties being limited to one, or has the number allowed been increased, or is there a bug?

I believe you may only offer one, but can have as many as are offered.  The civs who traded with you for their own Exploration Treaty cannot offer another one, but you still haven't used up your single one yet.

I decided to find out if there is a limit and whatever else I could learn.  I found two more races that would give me an exploration treaty, so my total went to five.  I could not offer an exploration treaty myself because I did not have the tech for it.  One of the races that I have an exploration treaty with was willing to trade me the tech.  After I got it, I found there was only one race left that I could offer it to, but I was not allowed to do so.  The tool tip said "Your instance limit of 1 has been hit" despite not giving any.

I waited a few turns until the first two expired, leaving me with three again.  I still could not give an exploration treaty.  I guess I can't offer the treaty if an alien race has already given me one.  I probably can, however, have as many as there are other races in the game if they are the ones doing the offering.  I don't know if they can offer me one if I have already given one to some other race.

I'm not sure if this is the way it is intended to work or not, but that is the way it is.
