PBW and Colonization Tech sharing

[Baron Grazic]

I suppose it depends on the victory conditions and any conditions that were stated at the time the game was created.
If it is a roll-playing game, then their should be a reason why you would, but for a team victory - go for it.

I am with you Taera in that I don't like doing a bunch of tech trading in games either. And you are correct that refusing to trade colony tech puts you at a disadvantage, but this is not wrong or right. It is simply a fact.

If this fact bothers you then you should either trade techs, or limit your games to those in which tech trading is disallowed.

Yet another reason for Ed Kolis' Colony Tech Mod to be made a standard for PBW (and SEV)...

It does not help much, since colony ships will be traded instead. This team wonging stuff is the main root cause for me to play solo games only since a couple of months.

If the game has a rule against it then everyone should follow the rule. If they don't then the problem isn't playing multiplayer, but who you are choosing to play multiplayer against.

My point simply was and is there is nothing "wrong" inherantly with colony tech trading itself. You have every right to dislike it, and I agree with you if you do. So play against people who agree and let the ones that want to trade colony tech play against each other.

Making it a standard would be a mistake. However if anyone want's it as a mod I can certainly set it up on PBW. Noone has asked to my recollection. Although it is incorporated in a couple other mods on PBW IIRC.
