A while ago we have voted for doing a lore pass on the tech tree, but seems like it is still not yet done as of UC update. Is there any updates on that front?

Good, I'm not the only one constantly asking.

I thought we were still waiting on a revamp to the economy/inflation mechanic?  Wasn't it proven that the whole thing was pretty broken and did the opposite of what it was intended to do?

Now-now, don't hi-jack the thread

Is there any update on the lore pass? With each game I play, the techs' descriptions make less and less sense, considering what you unlock from them.

We're still keeping the lore pass on the tech tree in mind. However, we think it will be best if we tackle this after the next DLC, as this will give the designers more freedom with the tech tree without risk of having to start over on the lore pass as they add content.

Adding techs without lore in mind seems absurd. I can understand absence of lore coherence in tech tree since it was redesigned in Early Access, but it's been two years since release. I've heard this "after next DLC" before.

Perhaps the mod “Tech tree lore rewrite“ by Self-rescuing Princess in Steam workshop is of use for you?

I wish it would also swap icons, because "Applied retrovirology" icon clearly illustrates Casimir effect.
