a) Do wonders increase your score ?

b) Do captured wonders increase your score ?

c) Wenn you steal a tech advance and select the one you're currently researching, the dialog for selecting a new one pops up. Choose "show me the big picture" and select any advance. Instead of setting a new research goal, you will steal it, too ! :eek:
Since the civ I was robbing had only two advances unknown to me, I could not test, if you can repeat the process to get all their advances, but I suspect you can.

Wonders do not directly affect your score. About the rest: Are you sure?
 
Well, after the incident I reloaded and used steal tech again, but this time I just accepted the new tech choice after stealing. Result: 1 tech stolen, 1 selected for research

Then I reloaded again, and again selected the "show me the big picture" option. Result: 2 techs stolen.

I currently don't have a game running where I could recheck, so it is possible that it was only a one-time-glitch and not a bug. Has anyone a game running where he can confirm this ?
 
I posted something similar a while ago as a bug. If there isn't a second tech to steal and you do the same clicking, there's no way out. You can't close the window because you haven't selected the next tech to research / steal. You can't select one to steal because there's nothing you don't have. You can't select one to research because it's not your list.
 
Sounds like a nasty bug. Until the next patch we had better avoid stealing any techs that will get us into the next (=modern) era, I suppose.

Edit: Spelling mistakes. (I have had too many of them lately. :cry: )

Edit 2: This is the second time that the "last edited by.." - text does not show up after my first edit. I have to mention it in the Feedback.
