Why are you not telling me what I am getting!?

If I want to offer a commercial pact with someone it tells me what I get, but if they offer me one I get no information?
This is stupid!
Furthermore tell me useful information for research pacts! Don't make me click 5 times to figure out they have pathetic tech compared to me!

I miss the days when I could just bribe the other side with energy/minerals/food to give me a research pact [while not sharing my own research].

There's a lot of diplomatic updates, QoL stuff, etc. that really need to be added.

Yeah that is messed up too. It's not balanced at all. Why would anyone make research pacts with someone so "pathetic"?
With the old way, at least one part could attempt a benefit.

"Dang you smart! Here is a butt ton of gold. Help us figure stuff out please!"

Or even "You're dumb but maybe you're not totally useless" would be fine by me. I would make agreements with pathetic empires and maybe we'd both benefit a little??

Now I only keep a lot of agreements for "role play" reasons only. It's sure not beneficial in the "greedy" sense to keep up these agreements.
