Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
Atrocities. Did you test your capturable tech using a Full tech start? I just tried that and I see what you mean. Seems like you found a bug in SE4. I'm just testing it but I think it will work as expected in a normal start.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
The full-tech start probably gives all possible techs to the race and that is why it would show up in the race's tech list - which is fine really.
More importantly - it shouldn't show up in the research screen...

Yea after thinking about it for a bit I agree. I just tested a mini game with the Fed tech I listed below and it does allow Fed Phasers to be captured but not researched. |

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
If you do a high tech start, all non-racial and all non-unique area (ancient ruins) tech areas are given to every race. So, capturable racial techs start out at max level on a high tech start. You can not get them without doing some capturing in a low or med tech start game though.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
I suppose that could be a design decision. After all, if you've had the time to fully research every possible technology, it's also feasible you could be given access to non-researchable tech.
Of course, this all makes more sense if you have a standard branch of low-ability comps, a standard-but-captured-some-racial branch of medium-ability comps, and a racial branch of high-ability comps.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
No wonder my computer players expanded poorly. I had switched off All warp points connected. Not a mistake I have repeated with my current game!
I basically murdered the Klingon race in the Last game, denyed them a glorious death

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
Probably an oversight. There are no such techs in the stock game. All techs can either be researched normally, require a trait to research and possess, or require a ruin colonized to possess.

Re: STM "Final v1.7.5" Discussion
I believe that an new A.I. bug has been discovered. In this case, the A.I. has been able to place three Federation Sensor Array Vs on a single ship. The ship class is Hippocrates.
In any case, if the A.I. is capable of placing three such arrays on a design, that means a 75% boost to attack & defense, and +30 sensor range.

Multiple copies of such components do not stack. They are just wasting space.
