Please respond ASAP

I'm working on a big mod and i'm wondering if i could possibly be able to make a tech that requires 2 or more preceding techs. This would mean that it connencts 2 branches. is this possible?

Please Help
Thanx,

You can do it (it won't crash or anything), but it won't work right as the system is not designed to accomodate it.

The editor is just a fancy interface to make it easier to mod than hand-editing the xml files. The limitations are the same.

I wouldn't expect it... it'd be a lot of work, with the tech screen rendering system and all related mechanics needing overhauled, for something that isn't ever used in the base game.
