Just a suggestion:

People should be able to declare peace when the country they are at war with goes into vacation mode. Similar to being able to declare peace when a country is killed.

I dunno, I think it's a legit strategy. It makes GDI relevant in war... otherwise it might as well not be there.

I definitely think that going into vacation should cancel at war against you.

vacation mode should not be a strategy in war.

If you wanna argue that GDI is useless in war, then deccing war should have a larger penalty...

I wasn't one of the countries that was hitting, but still it was annoying to those that were hitting and were stuck for 48hours.

And (s)he has been taken care of now :P

To elaborate - vacation mode is meant to take you out of the game - not to take others with you. Vacation mode should only affect your own country. I would also say that vacation mode should jerk all your goods from the market if it doesn't already.

I think it would be a bit more feasible to limit exactly when a country can go into vacation mode.

The problem at hand is that someone can suicide the living hell out of a clan with stocked turns/missiles/mil, then go into vacation mode as soon as that clan starts taking care of the problem. Then when the suicider is confident no one is looking, can jump out, suicide again, and then jump right back into vacation.

Perhaps a limit of no hits in the past 24 hrs prior to go into vacation like with GDI is a more relevant solution?

I am in favor of Vacation mode severing war. It only makes sense.

wow that bump. Zelow learning to be naughty.

I think like death vaca should allow you to make peace; enemies entering GDI and then hiding in protection to lock attackers in for 2 days seem about as fun as colostomy. That said it's rare so not a huge problem... so far :P

I concur with gerdler above... but as i feel that suiciders generally must lead impovished internal lives, and since i suppose leaving the game for a short spell just to spite their would be killers represents something of an innovation - i ask, why take this little thing from them? Logically, it makes no sense to me, but out of a sense of compassion, i can see leaving this wrinkle alone until it becomes a practical problem

if in vacation mode you should not receive turns. Thus when you come out you end up with the same amount of turns as you went in with. makes sense to me.
