Can You Add This? (Regarding Tech Trading)

[cgannon64]

So I'm wondering, would it be possible to make some kind of program that gets a list of every tech every known Civ has every turn? Some kind of window that would update every turn, showing me which techs which Civ has automatically. It may sound like a pipe dream, but it would streamline my game so much.

Could this be added in Conquests? This would streamline the game SO much.

Yes, add it!
I wouldn't call it a pipe dream, as there had been functions that would give you that info in civ1 and civ2.
I don't know why they left it away in civ3, since other civs' tech status (at least those you are currently able to research) could be observed by checking diplo every turn.

Similar to my request, I guess:
It's here

IIRC, in civ2 if you had Marco Polo's or the UN (or embassies?) you'd always get those popups like "Mongols discover Mobile Warfare!" or "English acquire Machine Tools from Zulu!" "Zulu acquire Flight from English!" I suppose something like this would be handy. I hope you don't want it for civs you haven't made contact with, though.

Maybe the way to handle it is - once you establish an embassy you can look at a screen that shows all the techs they have. Once you plant a spy you can find out what they are currently researching and how long it will take them. This could be a useful screen to have.
