Maybe I am doing something wrong but is it me or exchanging hostages almost always happens on AI's terms? I mean when I check with my neighbors it always says "They won't accept". A few days later that same clan offers me a hostage exchange.
I realize that situations change and AIs are opportunistic and they always consider their benefit but maybe the hostage exchange logic is a bit too tight. It almost never accepts and always offers on its own terms.
What could be beneficial is either an indicator that tells you one of your neighbors might accept a hostage exchange (if you offer) or some easy way to check it without going through each neighbor one by one.
What do you think?
