First of all, just wanted to say this is the best 4X I have ever played. But, you guys seem to like suggestions on how to improve things, even when it's better than anything else out there, so I just wanted to add my two bits. On the trading/diplomacy screen, one thing that really got me was an inability to determine the relative rankning of technologies. I haven't gotten the tech-tree down yet, and every time someone wants a tech trade, it's very difficult to figure out what a good trade would be. Perhaps a leaf out of the Civ games and have the amount of research needed to get the tech, or even just a link to a tech tree, or something to give some standing to the different techs for those of us who need the help. Hopefully, I'm not repeating what someone else has said, but I looked around for a while, and couldn't see anything. This would especially help later on if/when new techs get added, further adding to the confusion.
