Technology green and white

[Sir_Lancelot]

When I press F6 in the game and see my discovered technology, most of them are in green but some are white. The color should tell me something, but what? Can anyone possibly know what it means?

I suspected the white technology was stolen, but now I stole one and it is listed in green font. I know I have not stolen that much technology so green can't mean that.

In your own science report, white means you discovered that tech first.

When looking at the diplomatic report for rivals, white indicates a tech they have and you do not.

Thanks! I wish they had sold the game with a paper manual.

I'm a slow researcher in early- and mid-game it seems... But the Great Library saved my day.

My version (single player on Mac) came with a paper manual. But the manual was not very useful unlike the manual for Civ1 which was much better.

I'm one of those that are still learning new stuff after almost 20 years

I never played with democracy back then. But now I have been trying it out. I was surprised that doing certain things can cause total anarchy in your empire.

I remember the Civ1 manual, I read it thoroughly and often looked up stuff. It was a good book.
