Question about the Technology Research Screen

from Stardock Forums
From what I see (e.g. http://www.galciv.com/examples/5/new-63.jpg), there's no possibility to gather _exactly_ what you are about to research. The possible advances connected with the research field are listed in their respective fields ('Projects', 'Modules', 'Options' etc), but only their names are given, not what they mean _exactly_ (e.g. with potential social projects: how much they cost, what effects they have, etc.)

When I want to research something, I'd rather know exactly the possible benefits. I don't want to research something which 'sounds good' but upon completion reveals itself to be rather useless.

Is that so? Or is there a way to get more information on possible research results?

Please check this super site (consideration received LOL) there is a DB listing of the details you are looking for.

That's great how updated you keep that. Even putting up the different invasion techniques and other stuff. I keep this bookmarked because it's so well done.

And god knows how much I'll need it when I'm in my "Bumbling idiot newbie" stage. ;p

Nicely done, though I'd much rather prefer having that information in-game. Ah, well, can't have everything....

Thanks for the link, looks like I've got to bookmark that ;)

The beta group gave much praise to JavaScout for doing this because of his own fustration. Please be patient, I'm sure it will be integrated as soon as the development team gets a chance to get around to it. priorities, priorities... :)

It's been mentioned as being in planning for a future update.
