You can not have a tech area disable other tech areas. You are stuck using the honor system.

Oh well, I guess I'll start writing it with the honor system for now and hope for the required trait and restricted trait fields to be activated in the next patch

Yeah, was trying to do something similar, but couldn't find any work arounds. At least when you setup the AI it will only have the traits you pick for them.

I know what you mean.

In P&N, The Pirate, Normal and Nomad traits are all 0 points, and are supposed to be mutually exclusive.

However, any race that chooses more than one will be obvious as soon as they come in contact with any other empire:
- when you view the race, one of the tabs includes their characteristics, and also lists all traits they picked. They cannot hide.

...unless they pick so many traits that the list runs off the bottom of the window... SJ!!!
