*scratches head*
been looking at Centauri research.txt and see no big reason for slow racial research other than both EA and Centauri have multiple areas to research for racial "specialty" which have some "expensive" or bit longer basic research trails to get there...

IE Centauri have lasers (physics 2), ionic and plasma (physics 1). Also have ballistics to research (for ion torpedoes, each level of IT requires additional level of bOTH ionic weapond AND ballistics before being available IIRC). PD requires Military science then PD be researched.

I based racial weapons required on both the tech area.txt file (and what has racial advanced and the books from AoG as what weapons each race has on its ships)

Just to let ya know I at least did basic research before building the research file(s).
