    Okay, that is just retarded. Obviously the Gaians are always going to get the WP, as Morgan for the ME...

    Why I never will play time-warp again...

      I wouldn't be surprised if the Drones or the Hive got the WP, actually.
      CentEco is the first tech that many folk will research.

        How does Time Warp affect you if you have restructured your SPs and tech tree? I put the Uni Translator much earlier and I wonder if that means that a faction will get their hands on that if I Time Warp.

        It's just a jump to the left, and then a step to the right!

          Yeah, but lets consider this realistically. The gaians have an interest, the Drones and Hive don't. Same reason the University would get the Supercollider, they have the interest...

          Not to mention that more than just the drones and hive will get centauri ecology first...

            Alinestra Covelia,

            I'm fairly sure that the SPs are distributed based on their position in the SP list in alpha.txt, rather than on their prereqs. Note the players getting PTS without IA, etc. I've never changed the order of the projects because, as you say, it's easy to just change the tech prerequisites and otherwise the list order doesn't matter (well, except for movie lookups, etc.). I've never heard of anyone changing the list order. It'd be worth trying!

              Perhaps make the Ascent to Transcendence one of the first projects, and hope it's the one you get...

                  Hmmm, that gives me an idea for a scenario...give everyone their starting tech, + threshhold of transcendence. Then make ascent to transcendence the only victory option. Make it on a really tiny map, and maybe throw intense rivalry in there or something.

                  I don't think it would be much fun with the AI (the AI doesn't fully understand the importance of building the Ascent. They start it all right, but they don't put any additional resources into it like EC's or crawlers like they should be doing). Against some other humans, though, it could be interesting...
                  Civ IV is digital crack. If you are a college student in the middle of the semester, don't touch it with a 10-foot pole. I'm serious.
