Everybody loves Nootka

[petertel123]

I'm playing Korea, and I've colonized a bit of colonial Alaska. Problem is that everybody with exploration ideas seems to want the Nootka province (modern day Vancouver Island) really badly. I've had France, Spain, England, Ming and the Ottomans turn hostile to me. Ming was a 100 trust ally before they decided that they wanted that useless island. The Ottomans pretty much only wanted Nootka and some surrounding territories in America. Their closest province was in Indonesia. Only England had any colonies in California, Alaska was just me.
This has not destroyed my game or anything, but it has locked me out of some otherwise sensible alliances. AI reasoning for wanting provinces should really be looked at.

Life of the coloniser sadly; the 4 "main" colonisers (Spain, Portugal, France, England) will eventually start hating each other and/or getting the -x due to: Wants yours or wants your subjects provinces. This is especially true in CoTs and Estuaries.

Lel, it recently got reworked.

I agree, they did overlook quite a few things. Desires your provinces is as annoying as it has been before, but at least it isn't gamebreaking anymore.

One step back followed by one step forward. Progress
