stupid tech tree question...

[civaddict098]

So I havent played CIV in a while but i recently started playing it agian.

I noticed that in addition to starting with the two techs my civilization was alloted I also started with the wheel. and the wheel didnt have a line to anyhting...

did i just forget you start with it or something? how can I fix this?

I was recently making a mod but it was just a new civ and all the work i did was in the mod folder, and im not playing the mod.

any one have some words of advice?

Strange, I thought you can only start with two techs unless you popped a hut when finding your first city. The Wheel is needed to get Pottery too although it doesn't have a line leading to it, it is shown as 'must have knowledge of' in the Pottery tech icon.

thats not it (i checked the message log). Do you think if i re-installed the game it would fix it?

If you're playing at a low difficulty you get bonus techs at the start. You'll start with the wheel if you're playing on Warlord level or lower.
