Anyone created new treaties?

I was wondering if anyone created any new treaties. Also, I wonder if it's possible to create a swap kind of treaty. Like, race A is sending 10% gp production in return for 10% of race B's metal production. After looking through the treaties xml, it doesn't look possible, but I am not an xml master.

EDIT: According to Cari_Elf, the treaties aren't hooked up for general resources yet. So, at the moment, it's not possible, but sounds like it is to come in a future patch.

EDIT2: We *may* be able to use it for 1.09. A new tag might get added to allow us to at least make general stored resource treaties.

Not a bad idea. I haven't look at it yet. Could make some of the later diplomacy techs more worthwhile.

I can't seem to figure out how to create a metal treaty (same as gold, lets say). I can't find where the tags are defined (Income for gold, ResearchPoints for research). So I'm not sure if it's possible right now. I'll keep experimenting with it.

I'm not a programmer. However, is there a way to create a treaty that allows one time, passage thru another SOV's area? A very inexpensive treaty. This is so necessary in early game, when an NPC gets caught between beography and another SOV's controlled lands. Only option now is a non agression pact -and many times, early game, they are impossible to 'purchase.'

Well, yes and no. I just tried creating another treaty, like the non-agg pact, and it didn't work. I believe this one is hard coded. I see nothing in the Treaties xml file that DOES something (for the non-agg pact). It simply defines it, but doesn't define what it does. So, as for the yes part of it, I suppose you could overwrite non-agg pact. So, you can change the default value (right now set at 10000), and the duration (99 right now). However, if you want to actually HAVE a non-agg pact, and you've changed the duration to say, 2, then you'd have to resign said pact every 2 turns. It seems as though Treaties haven't been given much time yet (given the bugs, and everything else). If they're given some more oomph, they can actually make a difference in the game. I'm hoping they can figure out a way to do exchange treaties.
