    In your own F6 screen it means that your civ was the first to gain the advance.

    In a foreign F6 screen the white sciences are the ones you don't possess.

        can i at least thank him though?


        thanks for the explanation, i was right about the white techs of the AI, but looking at my own confused me because i knew that the computer had discovered some of those techs.

          But some of us can surely post to confirm the information is correct

              When you discover a tech look to see if anyone else has it......not so useful in SP but good for MP.

                This is particularly useful information when you build MPE and start the process of contact/share maps/trade techs. Check out all of them before begining contact to better plan the order of contact.

                For example, if you know that one AI is researching a tech that another already has, then you visit the second one first so you can trade for the tech and then gift that tech to the first AI and get them researching something else--hopefully something you will need.

                Maybe that point is so obvious that "some people" think it doesn't need to be said ...but it took me a while figure it out.
                But then I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
                so long and thanks for all the fish
