The reason why the QJ5 engine costs only one resource at prop level 14 is I think easily explained. Each tech level reduces the cost by 5% (see table below) so with a starting cost of 3 at tech level 0 reducing 5% each time shows that between 13 and 14 the cost drops below 1.5 - and I assume Stars! just rounds off the figure - in this case rounding down to 1. What I don't understand is why the mineral costs also reduce and by what rules they follow.

Tech Res
0 3.00
1 2.85
2 2.71
3 2.57
4 2.44
5 2.32
6 2.21
7 2.10
8 1.99
9 1.89
10 1.80
11 1.71
12 1.62
13 1.54
14 1.46
