Peaceful Timer

I don't know whether or not this exists already but I would like to have some sort of selectable peaceful timer before aliens start to attack you.

If that's too simple then maybe we could start with 30 minutes or so of peace and to further that you'd have to offer something to aliens (probably something you can craft that'd please them)

Maybe looking at that would negate your need of a specific mod :

I quite like this idea. We could have some sort of hive mind building that appears in some alien bases. These would appear as targets to combat robots and turrets, so to access it, you would have to clear the base by hand - a task that gets increasingly difficult throughout the game. After appeasing a mind several times, it would lose effectiveness (or influence with the rest of the swarm if your'e into lore).
Thoughts?
