In my latest game, I had a spy war. I checked all the areas of research but there doesn't seem to be a political option to attempt to end a spy war. Is this correct? Can attempts to make a trade route replace a spy war if successful?

No, trade routes will not end Spy Wars.

I have gotten Trade Routes to replace Spy Wars Cory Trese . I have to use a bunch of Trade Summits sometimes, but it will work. Eventually. |

I think you're just happening to have Trade Routes established as the war ends.  It never worked for me. D: |

Or maybe it forces out the Spy War to let the new conflict in. I dunno.

Spent about 8 hours testing this particular set of updates, maybe I didn't test enough and missed something. I'll put these Faction specific tech trees on hold and spend a few hours checking Trade Routes vs. Spy Wars. Can you provide me any clues as to what you did to trigger the bug? |

I had 2 Trade Routes and a Spy War, Great Houses, Hard, new 100x100 map w/90 worlds and 3 Xeno. Sometimes it seems like I can force the Spy War away with Trade Routes, but it may just be it ending naturally. If it did end on its own however, no turn event said so.

You cannot replace a Spy War with Trade Routes. Testing confirms that has been fixed, and fixed 100% of the time (as tested over 1.3 million turns.) I cannot chase it anymore, but I do not think it is a bad perception anyway. Keep pushing those Trade Summits! Instead of replacing Spy Wars, they can now reinforce and extend existing trade agreements. |

Okay, good, that is welcome news. I had gotten to the point where I would let my diplomacy suspend when I had a couple of trade alliances, because I would try another trade route, and the new route would replace the alliance. Noooooooo! lol

Spy wars are a pain in the arse! I've been kept from the 'three trade alliances at once' achievement by having one crop up just about every time I had two trade alliances and one route. I try to upgrade the route to an alliance using the strongest (40%?) option, only for it to fail and one of the alliances disappear and a spy war show up. Bad luck of course, I'm not suggesting it's a bug.
If I ever make it, God knows if I could ever upgrade those to full-on alliances for the last achievement of that type!
