industrialization

[Tegetthoff]

The argument seems to be that if the industrial key techs are placed in the secret weapons tree, they will not be transferred to a released nation and can then be unlocked by event.

Of course this would require a lot of testing ...

Hi,

Hmm, if all SW techs are not transfered that would certainly be an interesting option. Then we could customize each nation via the revilt entries so they would always revolt with the proper industrial level available.

That was certainly the implication of the comment (re SW techs got automatically transferring to released states). It would entail quite a lot of work to redo things to enable this, but it might be possible... have to ask baylox, perhaps, since he did our SW & Industrial tech trees. One issue might be space on the screen, mind you - though it may be possible to rearrange things.

Definitely an interesting possibility !

Actually the industrial techs could be "invisible", if this is possible. Since you cannot research them, you might just as well hide them.

Don't leave them "invisible", since it is always nice for the player to be able to see them. But this "secret weapon idea" looks very good, and I hope you guys look into it. Otherwise, one could end up with very screwed up things.

Yes, invisible would actually be a bad idea .....
