AI tech trading in TotA... still cheating / broken?

Simple question - was what I consider a game-breaking bug fixed in TotA? The AI tech trading SERIOUSLY made the game feel extremely broken.

When was the last time you played?

The AIs still do (seemingly random) offers to you and to each other, but the one-trade-per-8-turns rule added in DA has really put a damper on the effect of that behavior.

I still think the tech trading system needs to be completely revamped- it's poorly designed at the moment.

Would it be possible for the AI to tech trade like a human, under the same rules as the human? I'd rather have it do that then the current system. As it is now, I feel obliged to turn tech trading off.

That's something that will have to wait for GC3.

GC2 has been a great game, but if GC3 goes towards the evolutionary path (which I'd prefer actually- as there's still room for improvement even with TA- which is one of the best XPs I've seen so far), there are several concepts I'd like to see expanded or revamped- some big, some small (the survey ship anomalies feel ripped from GC1 at the moment)
