Enhanced Trade Interaction

[CaPtivE]

Is there a mod for better management of trade deals? I think the devs should really improve the trade system interaction.

For example, If I wanna sell a luxury resource, I'll have to manually check how much EACH CIV is offering. In a standard game, this is 7 other players that you have to manually go over 1 by 1, for each luxury (a boring and time-consuming process).

Why can't you see right away the bid of EVERY other civ, all in 1 place? This way you can directly see who's willing to pay the most for your resource instead of having to check manually one by one

now that is a good idea for an UI improvement. for each resource you should be able to open a seperate window where each leader show their offer. Also please dont allow haggling either.

Likewise, it would be nice to get invited to bid on AI luxuries when they have one to sell that I don't already have.

Is there a formula for converting gold per turn into lump sum gold? I haven't been able to work one out and if I need ready cash then it's tedious to try to convert 7 gpt into 125 gold or whatever. Absolutely agree that trading needs a far better interface.

The best mod I found to simplify trades is Concise UI. It is available via subscription on Steam workshop. Mouse over the AI icon in the upper right hand corner and all luxuries and strategics that can be traded are listed.

From my experience, if the AI is willing to give you X gpt, he'd alternatively be willing to pay a lump sum of 30X-10 at minimum (sometimes like 30X-5 or even 30X). So if he's offering 5gpt for your resource, he'll probably accept an alternative lump sum of 140 (more or less).
