How can I eliminate research for the Neutral races?
I want them to build only what they can with the starting techs in a middle tech setting start, and to not research anything at all.
I realize that this will make them only a bonus for the AIs, but that's the idea.
Those Battleships without warping ability that the Neutrals build are turning my imagination off.
What happens if I delete the research.txt file for the Neutrals?
Will they stop researching?
Or will they start using somebody elses research file?
Is it research hardcoded?
Also, is it possible to make a conquered Neutral to respawn somewhere else in the quadrant?
