Tech Trading

[wioneo]

Here's a stumper.
Tech trading is ON, and looking at the foreign advisor, I can see the techs that my AI opponent can trade. However, in the diplomacy screen, under "technology" NOTHING is listed. I'm used to seeing the techs listed in red if the guy doesn't want to trade them, but this is something entirely different.

anyone else encountered this problem before?

That happens when you are completely superior to them technologically. Congratulations Or possibly some horribly debilitating bug that stops you from tech trading. Are techs visible on your side of the trade screen?

EDIT: Oh, nevermind I did not read that correctly the first time, is it a tech that you traded for on that same turn? Screenshots would help people to help you.

AI tech costs are the same at all levels. iResearchPercent is the beaker cost multiplier for the human player. AI get a discount/increase for building units and buildings on different levels, but not techs.

Ok, I think that helped m too understand. So the price calculation is done the other way round - AI has charges/offers price X for a tech regardless of the difficulty (depending on the beakers it needed/would need to sesearch it), but for the human player a tech has a different beaker value on difficulty each level, which makes you feel like the AI cheats you on higher levels...
