Diplomatic macro needs improvement

[BarrosRodrigues]

@Johan @DDRJake
Although a great step in the right direction the new tool is mostly useless to me since it more often than not it tries to improve relations with countries that will cease to exist in the near future; this happens because said tool has no way of knowing what goes on the players mind wrt strategic goals/decisions. The result is that as before I end up micromanaging the diplomats.

My suggestion for a fix: we should be able to customize groups where countries could be added manually and diplomats assigned. So besides the standard "Outraged countries", "allies" etc. groups we would also have customizable groups.

All in all I am enjoying this patch a lot so kudos for the great work. With that said if only we could automate stacks to auto un-siege provinces similar to what stacks in rebel suppression do... maybe for the next expansion?

In addition, an HRE tab/option would be nice for auto-improving relations for nations in the HRE, electors in particular

To add on that, being able to filter the ledger by countries of interest would be great.
As for the diplomatic macro, I would just love to be able to tell my diplomat to skip to the next country on the list.

A Trade League tab/option would be useful also.

One simple thing I thought of was for it to ignore countries you have set to hostile. Clearly I don't care what they think of me, so why are my diplomats trying to make them like me?

On a related note, have it stop improving relations when it's at 200, at least until there's nothing else to do. As Emperor of Qing, I had lots of subjects, and time was wasted getting them all to +200 "improve relations" when they already had positives from other boni, meaning they would keep going to around +300 "actual" relations, which is useless.

Old thread but would really like to see improvements like some suggested. And also maybe tie the macro range to say.. colonial or trade range. If you start anywhere that can see ming, target threats goes to them even if 60 days away.
