A simple rearanging of the tech in the Modern Age could be a major improvement. Then you would have time for a BIG war while building the Space Ship. Adding a couple of tech would help even more.

Can you do this with a mod?

Well I could if I wasn't lazy. It wouldn't take long to rearange things. Just change the dependencies for each tech. For instance make some of the Space Ship techs have one of the dead end techs as a prerequisite. The main idea would be to make the launch come after all the all the other tech except future tech.

Adding a couple of techs for the ship would be best though. Fusion for the power for instance and either an ion drive or a laser drive.

I would do the rearanging (without adding anything) myself but I prefer to play the game unmodded so I am playing the same game as most of the other players.

I don´t want to rain on your parade or anything, but such a major overhaul is impossible to patch. It´s hard coded

This is exactly my point! WE don´t have the code, so WE can´t really alter all the things that make this game suck. It´s not like it´s open source. There´s limits to modding also.

I assumed when you said patch you meant Firaxis doing the patch. Obviously, if something is hard-coded WE can't do anything about it, but Firaxis can patch it.

There are a lot of things that can be changed in the editor though to make the game more to your liking, if you try hard enough.
