It does a little more than just that. I don't have access to the files right now, but it should be really simple to throw tech-trading-out independently.

thanks for replies , yes i did check available mods before posting , and aggressive AI mod do more than that

all i wanted is just to remove the tech trading , i hate it , it takes too long , and i remove it in any similar games i played ( ex civ 4 )

of course i don't mind if it was possible for alliances ,

i am playing a game hard difficulty right now with sophons ( agressive custom sophons ) and i am ranked 7th in technology , tried to trade but it gets frustrating , as apparently all AIs trade technologies once researched

i hope devs put that as an option when i start a new game one day , but for now a mod will do it

Actually that's not quite the case.

The AIs hardly, if at all, do tech-trading.

My reason to remove it was that it was too easily exploitable by the player.

If you have problems keeping up in tech, I'd guess it's related to a tech-order which does not include very early non-barionic-shielding.

Why is that? I thought that tech didn't have anything helping further research?

Don't know if it's the most elegant way to do it, but certainly the most easy one:

Go to Term.xml

find:

[CODE]

PercentPriceFactor="1"

PriceCoef="15"

AttitudeMalusCoef="0" HyperbolaCoef="80" AttitudeMalusOffset="-30" AttitudeTrendCoef="0"

PriceOffset="0" PriceMin="0" PriceMax="10" TechnologyCostRatioCoef="0.5">

%DiplomacyTechnologyTermTitle

%%

[/CODE]

Replace

with something like

Since there is no condition called "Never" it will never activate.

I think this will only take effect in a new game, but I'm not sure.
