I decided to put all of my "i know that..."s in this

Spoiler :

I know that some of these things are heavily unrealistic
I know that i haven't specified production cost
I know that sometimes the requirement techs overlap
I know that these techs have progressive bias...so what...
I know that any modder worth his salt will probably ignore this completely
I know that it will be hard to fit these into a realistic game
I know that making some of these things is hard

I was planning to do this on TheLopez's Civilizeditor but nothing has come out about it in over a year

No, its not that hard to mod in new buildings, mit mostly requires knowledge of XML and some art, unless you are only using preexisting in game art. You need to mod the Civ4BuildingClassInfos and Civ4BuildingInfos.

For the techs, you need to mod in stuff into the Civ4TechInfo, also XML. Judging by how many techs are going in, you will probably have to rearrange it slightly.

Its really not that hard, i suggest you find a good XML tutorial and do it yourself.

i think a new tech should be advanced robotics and have units like the robots from i robot.
