Diplomacy Mode

Diplomacy Mode

To enter or leave diplomacy mode, use the options link in the trailer bar at the bottom of any of the SF Commander screens. Note, the following information comes from that screen:

Information

In Diplomacy Mode, you cannot attack or espionage other players and other players cannot attack or espionage you. You also may not transport resources to or receive them from other players. In return for the protection, you are taxed a percentage of all earnings (from mines, missions, etc.) while in Diplomacy Mode. The percentage is based on your Resources Spent Building Points (which are found by viewing the leader board).

Resource Spent	Tax
0-49,999	25%
50,000-99,999	50%
100,000+	75%

Turning Diplomacy Mode on or off takes 24 hours. While toggling Diplomacy, you will remain in your current state for the 24 hours. So when turning it on, you will remaining outside of Diplomacy (and therefore able to be attacked) for 24 hours until it becomes effective. Attacks sent before Diplomacy mode takes effect may still land afterward. If you have an emergency and need immediate protection from future attacks, vacation mode may be a better option.

(!) means only that they are toggling. (d!) means they are in diplomacy and toggling out, and just (!) means they are playing and toggling into diplomacy mode.

There is no time limit on Diplomacy Mode, however becoming inactive (i.e. not logging in for 7 days) will make you vulnerable to attack despite being in Diplomacy Mode until you become active again.
