Default A Bug or Not???

Playing 1.49, no mods, high aggressive, low bonus, picked 5 races & tweaked traits, had computer then random pick others. Ended up with myself and 16 AI's. I met 8 AI's within lst 35 turns, had some fighting but made trade or trade reaserch treaties with 7 of the 8. When i went to intel and checked their Tech's Only 4 of the 7 were shown. Everything else showed up but their Teck screens were blank, played some more went back 10 turns later their tech screen blank, I started watching the % of trade etc, when it went over 18% - 20%, lo and behold their Techs were now visible.?? I never had this problem with the other patches. is this something new with 1.49 or possible bug..
also some of the 7 were those i tweaked the others were those the computer picked.

I think that the tech list only shows the techs from enemy designs that you know about. So you'd have seen the tech levels of the ships you've fought with or against, but not the ones who allied and never fought battles.

When your trade approached max, were there any battles or ship designs showing up?

I have noticed this as well. And it was related to the battles. If I or someone I had a partnership with fought a ship I knew about the tech it had. Otherwise not.

In addition if I used technological espionage to find out what techs an AI had it didn't update the listing. It told me in the logs what I found out but in the diplomacy screen it didn't update it. Had to use paper and pen to keep track of em so I knew what to steal.

SJ, no to both, I'm stumped.. Like Cy, I had to resort to paper to keep track.... any ideas???? I even thought maybe it was just one of those glitches that pop up every once in awhile but if Cy had same or similiar problem????? It just seems strange that it appears to be tied to the % of trade somehow,

Cy, did you by any chance watch the % of trade you had with the AI's and if so was there any difference??
