I posted this on Reddit because I was really frustrated about the diplomacy screen in general, and the war terms screen in particular. I think that the screenshot speaks for itself in terms of just how unclear this screen is. Any other feedback y'all have for the Devs about the diplo screen?

I don't see an issue, except for 1 thing:

    The surrender terms are from the enemies perspective, not yours. Should, be "Take" and "Vassalize", not "Give" and "Become Vassal"

Do you see the number of times "Give San Lorenzo" shows up with different war score values attached to them, in some cases forcing me to check the box, and not in others? What in the world is that trying to communicate to me?

Upvoted. This definitely needs some improvements like highlighting selected items on the map.

Seems like you had multiple demands that all would have resulted in transfer of San Lorenzo. So you get to pick the strongest (cheapest) one.

Certainly these could be consolidated intelligently by release, but that's what it's trying to tell you.

Another question I have is about trade. I can pretty easily request resources from AI, pay them for those resources, then start seeing the benefits immediately. Are we able to sell resources to AI? I am playing a merchant faction on my second playthrough and it alludes to my ability to broker resources, however I don't see a way to propose resource deals to AI. AI also haven't requested resource deals from me as far as I can see.

More diplomacy things came to mind: I really like the grievance and demand system! I like how grievances and ongoing demands create the desire for war. One gripe is that demands made by AI weren't displayed in notifications immediately; sometimes demands had been ongoing for many turns before I checked the crisis tab and saw that there was a demand there. Another issue is related to resolving demands (I don't recall the exact wording). Sometimes AI would propose a resolution to demands, yet not give in to my demands. If I accepted, it didn't seem like there was any tangible resolution (I didn't get anything) aside from forgiveness. Even forgiveness didn't improve our relationship as far as I could see. I would like to see this fleshed out a bit more.

@AuleCraft I echo everything you said. A couple of other notes about notifications and the AI: I had two AI's declare war on me and I didn't know that we were at war until they both showed up and took two of my cities because nothing ever popped up saying "you're at war". Also, I keep getting notifications saying that I'm trading a resource, and when I click on the event locator, it just zooms in on the resource, but I can't see who's buying it, or what benefits I'm getting from that interaction.
