I was running some numbers today and they didn't add up so I looked into it.

First off I'm using Version 2.70j

From the Help File (v2.6b)
Quote:

Gain research by spying and combining it with your own research. Gain resources in each field equal to ½ the average spent in that field by all races (including yourself) while at least one other race exists


So it should be

(Total spend by all players in each tech field /
the total number of players) / 2 = your bonus in that field.

Well that's not quite true.

in my testbed it works this way.

All the research that a player spends goes to the first Tech Field they researched that year and nothing to a second field.

So, if a player is researching Weapons and has "Next field to research:" set to Construction and then spends 100 resources on Weapons and 200 resources on Construction you will receive

(300 / number of Players) / 2 = what you will get in the Weapons field and nothing in the Construction field (if only the one player is researching weapons and construction, of course)
