hi



i had a good search of the forums and couldn't find any answers, so i was hoping someone here could elucidate the matter. my question is with regard to the trading technology mechanic within a multiplayer game- a friend and i are currently playing a game versus multiple computer enemies. i've been researching diplomatic technologies, while my friend has focused on military. so far, we've been able to set up a peace agreement, open borders, etc. though my research alone (he hasn't needed the diplomatic research as i'm the one proposing the deals). however, now that we're trading technologies, it seems our options are limited. naturally i can't offer technologies that he already has- but for example- i researched the ability to travel wormholes, and i cannot offer this technology as a trade (despite him not possessing the technology). is there a reason for this? for the record, i'm playing as the united empire, and he is the sowers. thanks!

You can't trade racial techs (the orange ones) with different races or tolerant planet techs. I believe you also cannot trade new ship classes (not sure if this is racially linked or not). I'm unsure if there are any other limitations (I have a feeling their might be, haven't fully tested it, yet).

This has been reported before in the tech support forum, but I was unable to get a specific example:

Please take a look at the suggestions there. If you can create a save game where player A should be able to trade tech B to player C but it is not available in the trade menu, please zip and attach the same game to a new thread (or the above thread) in tech support.
