Beta 6.2: Some available technologies not listed in default research screen

from GalCiv3 Forums

I'm playing as the Iconians. I can select Research Coordination to research via the tech tree view, but it does not show up in the default list view.

 

I played almost an entire game before I realized I could have more than just mid-range research facilities.  :(

If your game's like mine, you can trade techs for them.  :V

I can research them if I select them using the tech tree view.  But the list view appears by default, and not everyone might think to check the tree to make sure the list view is being honest.

 

Also, everything in the Xeno Archaelogy (which is spelled wrong in game :)) branch exhibits this behavior, at least through the age of war.

I suspect the affected technologies might be mis-categorized.  When I selected the Precursor Engineering tech from the Age of Ascension, and then flipped back to the list view, it appeared along with Neuro Linking, despite the two being from different categories.  And none of the four usual categories were highlighted as selected in this view either.

I think I saw this on a custom race with the Thalan tech tree as well on the "Dimensional Weapons" tech (I think that's the name).

I would never have noticed this since I never use the default screen.

This bug is still in 1.0.

It seems to be caused by technologies being defined before their prerequisite techs. I fixed it for a custom tech tree based on the Thalan tree by moving
