In this thread I posted a message a long time ago (about a year ago) and I said the exact same thing about the buildings. Back then I didn't hear you about it, so I assumed I was right.
I was lead to this conclusion (about the buildings) because of the B5 mod. I did some simulations with different buildings and I discovered when I had two excactly the same buildings, the computer chose the one wich required more researchpoints. Maybe I pulled the wrong conclusion, because your statement can also be true.
One building higher in the researchtree also requires more researchpoints (unless you've modded it to be cheaper).
Hmm... maybe worth doing some more experiments... if I had the time.
Ah well, doesn't really matter who is right (well it does, but not tonight).
Sorry if I sound a bit angry. I'm really tired and I want to go to sleep.
Signing off for the night (it's really early here; 21:15), but I'm really tired. See ya guys!
Thanks for the pleasant conversation Fyron!
