You can't get it to do several levels of an easy tech quickly with slow progress on a hard tech, but you can get it to mix and cycle easy and moderate (and hard) techs so that it doesn't waste any points.

That's what I was referring to. It can't "rotate" research projects up when they are low cost and get faster progress. Keeping more than one project in the queue is no problem. Recognizing that you can get faster benefits by re-arranging the queue is the problem. |
