Possible problem in trading techs with an AI

Posted on Tuesday, April 28, 2015

Again, this may be WAD, so I'm not filing a bug report yet...


I'm trading techs with an AI player.  Give a few techs, ask for a few techs, complete by asking the AI for money.  It suggests an amount of money, as it did with 5.3.  The thing is, I have to click again on the amount of credits asked to have it lowered.  In essence, I'm doing it twice. Was that intended to discourage tech trading?

 

Example:
give 3 techs           ask 3 techs

                              ask 100bc (the amount suggested)

Accept button is greyed out (AI refuses such deal)

 

give 3 techs           ask 3 techs

                              ask 90bc (the amount suggested)

Accept button can be pressed (AI accepts deal).

Bug or WAD?   Seems a bit inconvenient to be a feature.
