Culture spread

Why are your allies immune to your culture spread? I could understand if you were teamed with them or if you had at a cease-fire agreement with a trade or an intelligence agreement but it turns out that they are immune with only a cease-fire agreement. Just b/c I dont want to bother building the ships to attack him doesn't mean I dont want to own his planets.

I have also experianced a few wierd things this game; b/c my culture cant spread my boarder planet culture seems to be stuck. The first planet that I built a broadcast beacon(x2) has been stuck on +50% culture for over 2000 seconds with a culture spread rate of +2.0/sec. I also have a planet that is stuck at +80% culture. While, the last planet I built a beacon on already reached +100% w/ only +1.2/sec. All technology relating to culture has been fully upgaded.

Diplomacy is getting reworked; as things stand non-aggression is really an alliance pact.

hmmm, as to your culture attacking idea, there should be an option for whether your culture should spread at them or not...

In case of an alliance the cultures of allied partners should also have an additive effect on each other, not simply being canceled out.
So for example an allied player goes for culture and with that boosts your planets with it. (alliance as in permanent pact)
