Nice

i´ll have a look into the files, maybe with the most recent patch they changed some stuff i rely on.

Hi, yes I was able to recreate the situation. I deactivated this mod, let the time run to 2336 mid January and then reactivated this mod. Same problem.
After that I deactivated every other mod except this one and the problem is still there. It is not longer a minute per day but still 10-15 seconds per day. But my test is singleplayer, that could speed thinks up. Also in this situation there are about 30 mods missing, so that could have caused additional problems.

And yes the game has a check on mid and end game, but its standard functionality, as there are several other actions hooked to this check

Sounds very strange, all it does is add a tech cost malus, basically everything is a few % more expensive. It does so by checking once a month as far as i remember. Its based on those standard checkups stellaris had already. I did not encounter anything like that, can you try reactivating and see if it happens again?

Hi, I just played a game in multiplayer, and when the game changed from 2335 to 2336 the game slowed down massivley. Factor 50 or so. It took the game 5 minutes to process 5 days on fast. I guess the game decided now is endgame-time. When I deactivated this mod, left everything else as it was and tried again, everything was fine again. Do you have some information about this? Did you encounter something like this before?

Cool, thx for your work! :)
I am going to give it a try.

it does work in its current state, not very cleverly implemented yet but it does what it is supposed to to for now.

Hi, dou you have any progress on this mod? Does it work? :) I would really to try it because the "rushing through tech" at the mid to endgame annoys me as hell!

Wouldn't it be possible to edit the @tierXcostY values ? This would give you more control (higher cost for tier 4-5 techs rather than all techs having increased cost in mid game).

About mod compatibility, this would be (as far as I know) compatible with all mods that do use the default tech costs (I just checked ESC and it mostly uses the default values with only a few additional constants for specific techs). Compatibility for mods that do not use these defaut values could simply be added by redefining their constants (if that is possible, and hoping they defined tiers and used variables properly)

that would mean i'd have to know the cost for every tech in every mod, a task so tedious ...i really dont want even want to start thinking about it ;-) It needs to be something more global, there are very few variables readily available therefore i chose this way.

wouldn't it be better to increase late game tech costs?
