Any logic behind that would be appreciated. Now it seems the AI just throws a dice, and sya "hey, I want that province which I can't possibly core". Seriously, WTF?

They have the mission "subjogate the Crimea", and from what I know it's very unlikely they have access to Pacific Ocean. We're not rivals, but we have common one. What's the logic behind that?

The point is, they don't even have the mission against me. It seem that this modifier is given to anyone with expansion ideas. Maybe after westernization it will go away.

Neither my protestant pope (1.8) has a mission but he wants it.

Apparently they failed to code a line that if its impossible, it shouldn't want it.

It could use some tweaking even when they do get missions the sudden -200 is a little weird.

Last time I played as spain I stayed best friends with france but every once in a while after a makeout session with france the french king would suddenly flipout and go "SPICE ISLANDS? I DON'T HAVE SPICE ISLANDS I NEED ALL THE SPICE ISLANDS!!!!!!!!!!"

I could control it by looking over all my islands and giving him the worst one and then he'd be happy but it's sudden. Also I only owned 3 provines in india but when france wanted india they hated me to provinces I didn't even own until I gave them one in india.

If a guy wants every single province he wants every single province and me tossing him the worst one shouldn't reverse him back to happy. If he wants a province in an area of provinces that's a different story and maybe it should get it's own diplo hit that indicates what they actually want.

Dont start me on the Iberians:

-Castile: Hey Aragon, alliance?
-Aragon:Alliance brah!
-Castile:Hey Portugal, Iberian powah alliance?
-Portugal:You know it bros for life!

2 years latter.

C:Hey A, wanna poke at C for some fun?
A:Hell yeah!

Castile + Argon declare war on Portugal.

After blood, tears, sweat and semen they peace out. And immediately after the war:

-C:Hey P, sorry want alliance? It was Aragons fault you know
-P:Ok man sure.

10 years later they declare on Aragon.

Add infinitum until one of the f*ers forms Spain.

Two days ago I was playing as Bavaria when I made a new alliance with Brunswick I think it was, they asked me for the alliance. I checked and they had no significant negative modifiers against me, just a small residual one for having annexed a vassal a while back. FOUR DAYS after I accept the alliance and have RM'ed them, they break the alliance, rival me and they now have a "wants your province" modifier, -100 and they want every province I have.
Thankfully I don't play ironman so I tagged switched over to them and broke the royal marriage from their side. Why the hell should I have to lose a diplo slot or take the hit myself over some buggy bullcrap like that?
