I want to reduce the frequency by 1/2 of the diseminate.slc file below for giving sci advances for CTP1/2 how?

Ok, in the file there are the lines which contain:

if (Random(2*numberOfPlayers)< numberWith[advance] )

These determine how likely it is that you get an advance at each time it's checked. At the moment, random(2*number of players) means that if everyone but you has the advance, there is just under a 50:50 chance that you'll get it disseminated when the last other player does. So to reduce the frequency, just make that coefficient bigger. If you put it to 3, then the chance will approach 1/3 as everyone else gets it. Put it to 4 and it approaches 1/4. And so on.
So to halve the frequency, change all the 2s to 4s.

Thanks, that makes a lot of sence, I'll change it and hopefully less advances will be given away.
