1.2 Request: Espionage Reports Formatting

from GalCiv2 Forums
This is a minor suggestion, and it be pretty easy to insert a bunch of \n's when displaying strings.

When I go to the Relations window, and check out another race's techs through the espionage report, I get a HUGE list which is pretty difficult to read. If I'm looking for a specific technology that race has, I'm forced to wade through several lines of text. If at all possible, I'd love to see the technologies listed one-per-line (or even organized in an outline-style format).

id like to see the list "graphically" rendered as a snapshot of the tech tree.

An even better idea would be to only list the technologies that race has that at least one other race doesn't have yet. I mean you already know they have Hyperdrive by the year 2030, what's interesting is whether they have Hyper Warp yet. This way you could tell what they had that might be worth trading to give to someone else (the diplomacy screen already tells you what they have that you dont have, but not what others don't have.)

How about just make it expandable/collapsable? Each branch of the tree per line and you can click it to expand that whole branch to see where they're at. Or better, have the highest level tech in that branch listed when it's collapsed.

Yes, it would be a good improvement to list them in a clearer way.

It is just too much painfull to read through it searching for a specific tech, when you play with No Share Tech it is really important to look at the intell-report !

Maybe you could use a color-code to differentiate technologies which you have, you don't, nobody else have.

Hope this could be solved easily.
