the Iroquois AI

The various AIs settling every available plot was seriously impacting my enjoyment of the game. I changed the minimum distance from 3 to 4. Hopefully that is not making my games too easy!

??? The minimum distance between cities is already 4, unless it's on another landmass.
 
Tile counting can be a bit confusing. If you start from an existing city, and count 1, 2, 3 tiles away, a new city can be settled on the fourth tile away from the first city. Is that a 4-tile distance or a 3-tile distance? Feels like you should call that a 4 tile minimum (1, 2, 3, 4, settle), but the game files call it 3 tiles (presumably because there are 3 intervening tiles between cities).
