This probably needs to be a FAQ...

There are several things I like about Stars! tech trading:

1) It has a cost
2) It takes time
3) It isn't guarenteed
4) It's possible to observe by other players
5) It's possible to disrupt by other players
6) There are some techs that are harder to exchange

Also, from a coding point of view: It uses the same thing that offensive tech trade uses.

And from a balance point of view, you can't stop allies from using the existing methods, so a new method would need to be better, but that would break one of the above facets.

Short version: I will not change the tech trade.
