20 turns before the next meeting is really too long.
And only one trade allowed per turn is also too restrictive.
I like making several small trades in a session, it's more fun and, it allows more possibilities for the treaties (per example, you can break them later one at a time, instead of all at the same time).
Also, it should be possible to contact a civ during the whole turn duration, and not only for one meeting.
Sometime, I make some trades, and then I need to check something, or trade with another civ, and go back to negotiations with the first civ for several other trades, it's a nice "game of transactions".
The trade phase with other civilizations is a large part of the fun during the game for me, it's really too restrictive the way it's implemented currently.
8 turns before the next meeting would be much better, with full freedom of meeting during the current turn.
I know it's already possible to change the value for the number of turns between meetings with another civilization.
<AITradeCooldown>15</AITradeCooldown>
But, is there a way to allow more than 1 transaction per turn with another civilization?
Something like this for no limit for the current turn:
<AITradeLimitPerTurn>0</AITradeLimitPerTurn>
So, with the current value (limited to 1 transaction per turn):
<AITradeLimitPerTurn>1</AITradeLimitPerTurn>
And with possible tweak for flexibility (ex: limited to 4 transactions per turn):
<AITradeLimitPerTurn>4</AITradeLimitPerTurn>
