Hidden Alloys - crush your enemy!

Description
TL;DR With this mod you can research all weapon and armor techs instead of relying on quest rewards. Mod works as of game version v1.5.13 with Tempest dlc (see 'known issues' at the bottom).

Mod unlocks technologies for research for Tier 2 Hyperium, Mithrire and Tier 3 Titanium, Glassteel, Adamantium, Palladium, Hyperium, Mithrite weapons\armors\accessories to ensure that you'll get all items instead of relying on random quest rewards.

This mod is EXTENSION-type (should be fully compatible with other mods). AI also can research these technologies.

Titanium & Glassteel:
- Tier 1: Era 1 (vanilla)
- Tier 2: Era 2 (vanilla)
- Tier 3: Era 3 (unlocked by mod; techs ui is in Era 2, but can be researched only in Era 3 and at cost of Era 3 techs; this ui workaround is needed to keep mod extension-type)

Adamantium & Palladium:
- Tier 1: Era 3 (vanilla)
- Tier 2: Era 5 (vanilla)
- Tier 3: Era 6 (unlocked by mod; cost is 30% of Era 6 techs; researching doesn't count towards scientific victory)

Hyperium & Mithrite
- Tier 1: Era 4 (vanilla)
- Tier 2: Era 5 (unlocked by mod)
- Tier 3: Era 6 (unlocked by mod; cost is 30% of Era 6 techs; researching doesn't count towards scientific victory)

Iron & Dust items are not tweaked in any way.

Known issues (as of game version v1.5.13 with Tempest dlc):
- if you exit game in the middle of researching, the game doesn't save that research progress, so you'll have to start over with that particular tech.

FOR MOD CREATORS:
I beleive that we are like family in this community helping each other to create richer experience of the game, so you are free to use my code in any non-commercial mod in the way you see fit. However, it's a good tone to mention my name and a link to this mod, as the original. Ty very much, let's make more gifts (read mods) to the users.

Is it possible to change hidden alloy to Era 3 tech? Feels weird balancewise to research this tech in the same era as the era 2 variant.

Know this is not maintained/active, but looks like the root hiddenalloys.xml would need an entry to have the AI files loaded?

Like:
<DatabasePlugin DataType="AIParameterDatatableElement, Assembly-CSharp">
<FilePath>AI/AIParameters[*].xml</FilePath>
</DatabasePlugin>

Was looking to use the mod and see if the known issue was still active. Games seems to ask me to validate on loading a save with the mod every-time, but other than that it does not seem to be losing any research.

Using community patch, hidden alloys, more techs per era, 1st turn settlers have more sight/range, vanilla heroes re-balanced, vanilla heroes labled.

Is it possible to move the hidden alloys to the next era, instead of the same era as tier 2 alloys? Just breaks the point of getting the tier 2 alloys.

glitched while playing Forgotten. Stuck in Exotic alloy, no matter how many times i clicked it, it wont buy the tech

Ctrl+F'ing through looking for "ELCP" and "Community", I didn't see anyone asking, or answering--So I'll ask: Is this compatible with the Community Patch?

Is it possible to make AI reserch the techs by giving them a higher then regular era 6 techs?
If I remember, then all stuff has a certain priority, that's a single row of code for stuff.

No, AI isn't able to do it, I didn't write any code for mod's custom techs for AI to evaluate them.

Is the AI able to research the same techs?

I haven't play this game for more than a year, spending my time in other games - mostly Endless Space 2 - and I modded the only thing that I personally didn't like about EL back then (which, combined with other community mods made the game close to perfect for me). Even if I return to playing Endless Legend some time later I'm very satisfied with its state, thus I don't have plans or ideas for further modding.
