So I've Googled my heart away and cannot find anything solid about ceasefire and why it happens, how long for, what effect etc., but I was in a CZ last night, couple dozen ships spawned, dozen per side, had two choice of factions in my right hand screen, but as per my usual I shot one of them and the other 11 went red so it auto chose my side and off I set to clear the CZ.
I cleared the CZ but then noticed I wasn't getting any combat bonds or vouchers appearing on my transactions tab, so checked the faction choice and it said ceasefire - even though the two sides were still fighting!
So first off, when does ceasefire occur, how long etc., and secondly, why would the fight still be ongoing if there's a ceasefire?? The second sounds like a bug, or like I broke the ceasefire so they carried on but I didn't get reward.... I'm sure the first part of the fight the ships said wanted and then after the ceasefire it said lawless.
If it helps, this happened in the Nyikari system, and the civil war was between two factions with 7% influence each? There is also only the single space station in this system, though a base was listed on my left tab which doesn't appear on Inara or EDDB...
