Trading Technology for Cash

from Stardock Forums
Unfortunately trading technology for cash seems to be the key to winning this game(it is at the level I play), the problem is the fact this trading process is very boring and the lack of a counter proposal system makes it very time consuming as well. I think this part of the game needs to be changed so that you either can't trade tech for cash or the number of trades the AI accepts are massively reduced.

The recent update made tech selling quite tough at the higher AI levels.

If you don't like playing at the higher AIs, you could always practise self-restraint :)

Yes, the game definitely needs a "what would you offer me for this?" option, or alternately, "what can I offer you for that?". However, I've found that the new use of the sliders (set it to 100, then pull the slider up the months until it turns yellow) is a vast improvement over v1.1. The slider also works well for purchasing influence.
FWIW, I usually only trade with minor races - and I never trade away diplomacy techs.

Heh, I started selling my tech for cash (or influence) last night for the first time (bankrupted the Arcaens, who, unfortuantely, surrended to the Drengin). Accidently I discovered that the mouse wheel could increase/decrease the amount. Now *that* saved a lot of time. :CONGRAT:
