I love trading technologies with other races. I really do. However, in order to know which technology is available and what faction offers it, you have to go into the trading screen with every single faction. On a map with many factions this means a lot of clicking around and it is hard to keep track of who has what.
I propose to enhance the technology-screen to show what faction offers a technology for trading. It could be a list in a tooltipp, but I think the best way would be to show it in a special bar on the right if you select the technology - this way it would be a scrollable list and it would still work on on bigger maps with many factions.
This would really help in understanding the current technology-market. It would massively decrease the time you need to search for a trading partner if you want to buy a certain technology. It would also help with the decision what technology to research next.
Would be spiffy indeed.
I'd almost like to see that as an enhancement tied into espionage once we get that... so we can see what they are currently researching... and such..
I too like tech trading... this is ultra annoying going to trade screen back to technology screen.... its even more difficult coz the technologies arn't listed alphabetically in the trade screen.
I'd love to see what each highlight over a technology and see who has it... I would even accept that you had to have good relations with a race (maybe as part of research treaty?) that enables your technology tree to view other races researched technologies
