Thanks for testing.

I have not tested the team research feature with the patch myself yet. It
is supposed to be disabled unless you have started the game in "team_mode"
(you get 'team mode' if you made teams in pregame; this is a little
confusing, admittedly... but we cannot allow team research by default in
normal games, it is too powerful).

Yes, you should not lose reputation if you leave an alliance with only
yourself in it. Will change.

The AIs call their alliances "Pax <nation>", you can call your own
alliance whatever you want. We might put an AI/human default treaty name
in nation.ruleset. That would be cool.
