what does future technology give me????? it goes on forever too, when will it stop???


Also whenever I download something from this site it gives me a file named ATTACHMENT.........How do I open these???

[Todd Hawks]

It doesn't really give you anything AFAIK and it goes on forever so your scientists have something to do


You can open/use these "attachment" files by renaming them to their real name (which normally is the one you click on to download them).

I think that each future tech gives a bonus to your final Civ Score. (Not sure exactly how much though.)

[Todd Hawks]

Are you sure? It was that way in Civ2 but if you look at the score calculations in the history graph window there is no reference to future technology.

[ZiAH]

read it in the instruction manual pg 96, but i've never confirmed this in an actual game.

after about five future techs, i think i earned 0.1 points. but i'm 85 turns past when it stopped scoring me.

More points as far as I understand it. The more the better.

Rename it to "attachement.zip" You should then be able to unzip it

Future tech adds points to your score if you're still being scored. Other than that it's useless. If you don't care about your score, set your science research level to 0 and make your citizens happy!

So how much does it add to your score. I now have 0.9 added to my score after having discovered 7 future techs??? This is with 1.17 patch, which was supposed to change something with regards to future tech?

Any suggestions/real help/Anybody knows?

In one MOD I discovered 117 future techs.
