Easier diplomacy

• Increased maximum barter offer weighting, so your offers will improve past where they could before.
  
• Adjusted region trading to be easier, particularly during wars when your allies/vassals conquer a region you want and request from them by removing the penalty for requesting recently acquired regions. See more in change notes.

Non-aggression pacts are the only relatively easy diplomatic treaties in the base game. To gain defensive or military alliances you seem to usually have to wait till mid-late game when you can afford to offer vast resources.

This doesn't make sense to me as I can have non-aggression pacts with same culture factions and multiple barters over many turns, including fighting common enemies, and they still don't want to ally! This annoyed me as some of the techs require alliances with factions.

This mod greatly increases the weighting of your barter offers. It doesn't crazily affect barter over time exchanges but you may notice something. This has no balancing, I haven't tested every faction vs every faction etc. This is a brute force way for me to better manage relationships in game and for role-play alliances/vassals etc.

It will still cost you a bit, but it is pretty much a cheat mod... so be aware.

Compatible with saves, and any mods that don't affect CAI diplomacy.

Let me know if you experience any issues/notice any faction->faction that it doesn't seem to apply to.
