Possible.

requirement 1:
Get_Empire_Tech_Level("x") >= (1 + ([%Level%] - 12))
requirement 2:
Get_Empire_Tech_Level("y") >= (1 + ([%Level%] - 3))

should do it..

[Suicide Junkie]

I think you meant to put multiplication instead of subtraction.

This should work better:
requirement 1:
Get_Empire_Tech_Level("x") >= ([%Level%] * 11 - 10)
requirement 2:
Get_Empire_Tech_Level("y") >= ([%Level%] * 2 - 1)

Level 1 requires X >= (11-10 = 1) and Y >= (2-1 = 1)
Level 2 requires X >= (22-10 = 12) and Y >= (4-1 = 3)

Apologies gentlemen; however, I am just too slow to follow those examples. I have decided to leave them as separate components that phase out. Now how about something a little less complex, how would I tackle this one?

I have the component “Bottomless Fiend Grinder” [BFG] and I want another generation to come available every other level. So for example:

At tech level 1 you get BFG 1.
At tech level 3 you get BFG 2.
At tech level, ya Ok you get the idea…

How would I do that?

Requirement:

GETL("x") > [%Level%] * 2

[Captain Kwok]

Suicide Junkie said: GETL("x") > [%Level%] * 2

...or GETL("x") > (([%Level%] * 2) - 1) for an odd series.

Ok; now I understand this and the other formula (1st and 12th tech level)! I was way over thinking the whole thing. Thanks guys, back to the grind till the next question.

If I use a formula that generates a fraction what will SE do? Choke and die, round up, round down, or ignore all fractions?
