Someone else has probably reported this before me, but after reading through a great many threads I couldn't find anything so...
When you give the AI money in a lump sum and ask for money per turn, it will generally agree if your trade relations are good and it has the money per turn available.
Strangely enough I seem to get double the income.
Say I give the AI 20 gold in exchange for 1Gpt, which gives the AI 20 and I get my 20 back over the next 20 turns, I see one extra income added to my overall income.
But when I checked the next turn, I didn't get 1Gp, I got 2! Though the advisor says otherwise. It's probably a bug. But this way you can maintain good trade relations with other nations since you can accept offers like offering 46Gold for 2Gpt, because in effect I am getting 4Gpt... or 80 gold over 20 turns, meaning 34Gold profit. And the AI's happy.
I noticed this in my last game when the income was -210 but the next turn I ended up with about 156 extra gold in my treasury. Checking where I could've come from I noticed an income from other civs through trade of 366...
Anyone care to comment?
