Ok, this happens to me on all my games, and I am really getting sick of it; I push the end turn button, and instead of advancing my research, filling my treasury, and granting movement points, all I get is more moves for my ships. There have been times where I was depending on getting a certain technology the next turn to advance my strategic position, but my research bar stays unchanged, and grants my and the AI more movement points, and the bad guys are able to screw me over because I lack a certain Tech.
Is this a bug? If so, why hasn't it been fixed by now, I've been experiencing it since release, and something like this should have been fixed already. If it isn't a bug, and is intended, or can be toggled in the options menu, feel free to call me an idiot and proceed to flame this thread into oblivion.
Thanks
