Ok so played this game a nuymber of times now and one slightly (ok really) frustrating thing is research later in the game. While early on you roar up a couple of branches, later on you want to go back and do a couple of side branches. Problem is by this stage your research is high so most things only take a turn to complete. If your lucky enough and you have two linked you can get 2 techs in the one turn - fair enough, if you got the facilities why not. HOWEVER when you have two techs joined AND also linked off one of the main branches you can only select to do one, the AI for research always make choices for me. I would like a way of setting up my one path for research. Another example is if you want to research weapons tree, you select the 2 lv research point the AI always selects the left branch but I want it to follow the right branch at level one. Slight grip I know but some more player control over science pathing would be nice? Maybe right click on research tree sets that point to green, right clicking on another linked research sets that as the next point to research maybe? Right click anywhere else clears the selection. Just a thought.



Cheers

You do know that you can queue technologies by shift-left-clicking, right?

LOL! Well I do now!!! DOH!
