Civ Online Game: Techtree question

[Absolut]

Hi all!

I'm currently developing a webbased version of CivII. I use the FreeCiv rules, but unfortunately there are still open questions. Maybe someone could help me.

Here the most important question:

How expensive is a single Technology? Or how is the total cost for a research calculated? I have the complete TechTree implemented (Using the original Civ2 Techtree), but i have no idea where to find the amount of "bulbs" nedded for one research.

Thanks for helping!

Here's the best thread I know of - Samson's "Cost of Research Explained":

I don't think it is exact, because there is also some relationship to map size and difficulty level that is not mentioned. Probably a couple other obscure things too.
