No Technology Potential Projects

[jtfris]

Can anyone explain to me why a game of Revolutions would not have any potential projects listed? It is 1894, I am playing Prussia, and have advanced all my tech levels to 20-24. Now there are no potential projects displaying. It does not make sense to me.

the fifth level of techs do not become active until IIRc 1898 - this helps prevent tech rushing and allows for balance between the human player and AI

also if you have a research group other than Traditional Academic, some times the game engine will have the techs shuffled so that you can not research a couple techs because a tech is missed and does not come up.

Switch to Traditional Academic research line and you might have techs come up, but my guess is that you have just researched everything that can be researched to this point, and have to wait for 1898 to come around.

Techs have a date that they become available. You've simply researched all avaible techs for the time being.

Check every couple months and some will show up.

Edit: Gosh darn it he's fast. :rofl:

Thanks for the quick turnaround. I was guessing it was something like that. fwiw, I already went through all the different administrations and got nothing. Also interesting that almost all of the 4 and 5 level techs are unavailable, but I was able to get a few of the naval techs at level 5.

As far as I can recall, naval techs are "special" in that they do not have that sort of date. No, I don't really know why, unfortunately.

That happens to me too, my industry techs will always be slightly behind my Naval techs right up to the end of the game, simply because I can research them sooner.

Incidentally, is this a bug or intentional?

I prefer to believe that Vicky has no bugs. Only features.

because naval units can take 2-3 years to build each one, so to balance the very long time units need to construct, the research into navy is not given as much limitations.
