Do races in the same alliance share tech on their own?
« on: May 07, 2014, 10:16:48 am »
Quote from: 1.016 patch notes
The attitude threshold for races sharing techs with other races in the same alliance as them has been raised substantially.
This may actually have been a factor with some races speeding through the tech tree in previous versions.
This was new to me :o. Is this announced by a dedicated sidebar notification?
Or does it happen under the hood?

I didn't know that they did that in previous versions <_< But yeah, in current version once race enters federation, other races seem to trade them tech very fast.

It was pretty obvious that it happened when you went to the Skylaxians and the Andor and saw that the only people they were willing to / could donate tech to were in a hostile alliance. :P
Furthermore, it is my opinion that Hari must be destroyed.

Thanks!

* The manner in which techs are acquired is now vastly more clear in the notifications, and all of the techs that a race gets are actually reported on.
** There are actually 9 overall methods that a race might gain a tech (and a couple of those have sub-methods, but they are similar enough to be grouped together), but previously either they were not showing at all (the majority case), or just were showing as "tech researched."
** As with the war notifications, now this is hugely more clear just what the heck is actually going on.
