Alliances expire after 1 turn (?)


I received the message that my alliances with my allies have expired, and indeed, I cannot see these listed in the foreigns relations list of active treaties.

Oddly enough, I had just formed them. Additionally, the smiley next to their names in the HUD is blue, and they are still listed as "Ally".

I had this happen to me in 1.2

In older versions, the alliances would often actually get cancelled after 1 turn. Maybe they fixed the cancelling part, but somehow the message still gets displayed?

Seems to be conflicting information currently. One the one hand,

a. In the HUD upper right, I get a blue smiley and the mouse-over tells me I am allied. In the Foreign Relations, the arrow on the scale is to the right and is labeled "Ally".

And on the other hand,

b. I receive the message that my Alliance Treaty has expired, and on the right side of the Foreign Relations register, the Alliance is not listed as amongst those currently existing.

I have diplomatic victory enabled, and in the kingdom report register, alliances are listed as valid (currently 2/4).

Perhaps this is a bug related to the following (simply my conjecture) -- During the same turn, a player successfully creates an Alliance Treaty with two (or more) parties who, in that turn, are each separately at war with one another. I am pretty sure I did this.
