Pillaging AIs city connection doesn't affect gold per turn

[Diktaattori]

As title says: Pillaging AIs city connection doesn't affect their gold per turn. This is ALWAYS ALWAYS the case and their gold per turn doesn't go immediately down or turn after.


IS this a feature so human player cant abuse and bank corrupt AI or is it a bug?

If that's indeed true then yes it's so you can't "abuse" the AI.

Many of Civ 5's quirks and features are based around not being able to make it "too easy" to "exploit" or "abuse" the AI.

For example; they can be inside your territory, declare war on you, and not be pushed out of your borders when doing so. Which is why you should almost never give Open Borders.

They also are fond of spreading rumors, such as "our spies detected that X is planning to attack you" even if X is much friendlier than they are.
