problem with #allies command

[mlepinski]

I recently started a single player game with Version 2.11 in which my desire was to have several computer players allied against me.

I included the command

#allies 11 4

in the .map file, but I'm now 22 turns into the game and Ulm (empire 4) is laying siege to a fortress belonging to Vanheim (empire 11). I never had any trouble with the #allies command in previous games (all of which used Version 2.08).

So I was wondering:
- Has anyone else had trouble with #allies in Version 2.11?
- Can anyone think of anything I might have done wrong with the mapfile that might have caused #allies not to work. (I can't think of anything I did differently in this game, but maybe I missed something).

Thanks,
