I really didn't understand that bit.

Anyways, yea, I remember this from my AI playing days and especially when u want the extra resources to go the secondary field.

The problem with the way stars handles this, is that when you are researching two fields in the same year, any advantage in getting a resource tech research burst, would be feasible only if u complete the research in the primary field and you shift to the secondary field.
As that happens, it means u have gained a tech and the bonus doesnt tip you over, but just goes into the initial research of the next level..
Ofcourse, it would be better used in the second field, not the first... But that's not going to happen, thanks to this bug.

It's more of a hassle than a boon, but quite insignificant, 9 out of 10 years.



I know my minefields.. but I'm a chaff sweeper.
I used to curse when I got stuck in traffic... till I realised I AM traffic.
