Pathfinder,

Odd, I start both the Centauri race weapons very early (within first 10 techs to research. EA lasers and pulse take awhile (but NOT 190 turns!) to get those going but they should have at least the first level or 3 of them by turn 190

This is what Centauri have by turn 190 for weapons;
Centauri Med and Heavy weapons
Most of the general weapon
Ballistic weapon Lv1
Plasma Lv5
PD lv1
Particle Lv2
Explosive WH Lv1
Matter Lv1
Smaller Lv1
Laser Lv1
Armor Lv1

I redirected they research to additional levels of Ballistic weapons, Last level for Centauri racial technology, Ship construction, propulsion, to name a few.
I thought the Centauri weren't developing they racial technology and research far enought by turn 190, that all. If you designed PF, I supported your effort 100%. I was only trying to point out what I thought was a weakest in the AI research that all.
I am trying to assist your effort by play testing the AI, since I can not help program it. For I'm do not know to program, period.
