What I thought was impossible...

[Eivind IV]

Ok, I've come across a problem while working on the 'Blitzkrieg 1936'. I've asked some of the experts I know over here, but they couldn't help me, so I now come before you.

Each civ discover up to 4 techs at the beginning of each turn. I've tried to slow the process through the Tech paradigm in the cosmic rules. Nothing seems to work. This surely beats me an my knowledge...

Please download the files and see for your self...I'm desperate!

The speed that you acquire techs is also partially determined by how many you already have; this is why tech progress in vanilla Civ2 holds relatively steady throughout the course of a game, despite the fact that the amount of beakers you are putting out in 4000BC is dwarved by the number you are putting out in 2000 AD. If you give each civ some techs to begin with, it should alleviate your problem somewhat.

Man! The people at the Scenario League just keep impressing me. All these little details...I would never think of that...Thanks Paul!

Change the tech paradigm under Edit King. The rules.txt one doesn't do much of anything in a scenario.

[Eivind IV]

Thanks guys! Really nice to know!

I can also do a strange thing (not sure if that works): I can hex-edit the tech count of all the civs, so they'd discover techs slower than usual, without changing the tech paradigm...

Change the tech progress under the King menu. Most propably you've added trade routes and as you know trade revenue gives a bonus to science beakers.

It is a common neglection(by me at least..) .

@yaroslav: How?

[St Leo]

Cheat > Edit King > Tech Paradigm

I've never added trade routes to my scenarios, but then I am special.

[Eivind IV]

Listen, I really don't follow you on everyone's references to the Edit King menu. Under Edit King there is no such thing as Tech Paradigm? But under Cheat > Scenario Parameters, you'll find the Tech Paradigm.

Am I just misunderstanding you guys, or what?

[yaroslav]

Kobra, I think you're right about the placement of the option...

I was speaking of hex-editing... it's not easy to explain

[St Leo]

Cheat > A Miracle Happens > Tech Paradigm > PROFIT!!!

Yeah, you are right. I'm growing senile. That's the working option.

What is the relationship, linear or exponential?

AAAAAAAARGH! It's people like you I need to get at least one point in my Maths exams

Hello again!

I have another 'what -I-thought-was-impossible-question'.

Why does partisans take to the hills after I capture a city, even if I'm certain that civ does not have Guerilla Warfare. It's a scenario and I'm trying to remove this kind of troubles. I have already removed it from the tech tree, but this beats me...
