AI trading bug
I've noticed that AI players greatly favor each other over human players in trades. Often, an AI player will offer a trade for a resource that only I have. When I accept, it counteroffers for 2:1 in my favor. When I accept that, it counteroffers 3:1 in my favor. When I accept that, it declines and goes to the next turn. Then when another AI player gets the desired resource, it trades 1:1, even if the recipient is in first place and I am in last place. I often end up turning off trades at a certain point because any AI offers will be rescinded as soon as I accept and it's just a waste of time.

Yes, had the same problem that the AI does not trade with me when I accept their offer. Or they don't accept my offers but when it's their turn they post the same trade (which I then accept but they don't trade anyway).

I don't think not trading with you is a bug. It often makes a decision not to trade because you are potentially going to take spots it wants or other similar reasons. I have notice however this AI will accept a counter offer for a trade for 2 to 1 in my favor, but not honor the 2 cards. (It asks for 1 wood for 1 brick, I counter for 2 bricks, it accepts and only gives me 1). This happens sometimes, not always.

The second trading bug is it will trade with me for cards it doesn't have. I will offer say 2 brick for 1 wood. The AI will accept and pay up even if it only has 1 card in its hand

My issue is that the AI players know what cards I have, so they presumably know what the other AIs have. If I'm the only one with a resource it wants, but it doesn't want to trade with me, it shouldn't make the offer in the first place.

Is there anyway to disable trading for the AI's?
