Default A little bug

Sorry if this was reported before.

In the trade window, you can give things and obtain others in exchange.

The problem is that you can select multiple times the same object. For example, if in the Give window you click 20 times the ship Abomination 0023, it wil appear as if you were offering 20 ships! The AI can be swindled easily, as it "believes" that the offer is generous. I obtained colony ships, dreadnoughts, resources, technologies, planets, etc. this way.

You can trade multiple times the same colony, system, technology, star chart, treaty, etc. too.

But there are more. You can trade the same object with more than 1 empire! You can offer the "20" Abomination 0023 in exchange of Eee technology, Sergetti colonies, Zinarra resources, Krill ships... (In the same turn, sending trade Messages to all the empires)

In this case, the object will be transferred to the first empire that accepts the trade. The others will obtain nothing)

Yep, there are several issues, see also:

But it is always up to you if you cheat the AI or resist the temptation.
