Krynn trading technology bug

from GalCiv2 Forums
The Krynn consulate tried to trade me my 'Interstellar governments' for their 'Counter Espionage' technology, only the thing was that their technology did not show up in the offered items on their side. Soo... for beta-purposes I accepted the trade to find out that I did NOT get the technology.

Is it some sort of bug that because they get the technology at the start, it's flagged as known but they don't actually have it? Would be weird as when you start with 'Barren Colonisation' you can trade it to others.

I have a screenshot if needed!

The only time I have seen something like this is when the AI attempts to sell an alignment-specific tech to a player of a different alignment. Since 'Counter-Espionage' is, afaik, available to every civ, this might just be a bug, especially since you have already sucessfully traded one of the same class of techs.

The Counter-Espionage tech is a non-tradeable technology.  This is the reason it doesn't show up in the listbox, and the reason you do not get it when you accept the trade.  I found and fixed the problem in the code where it slipped through and was offered up for trade.  So it'll be in the next build of the game.

Thanks for tracking it down and giving us feedback!
