What does researching Advanced Propulsion Tech I and higher do in Master of Orion 1?
Posted On: May 6, 2023

It looks like once you've finished researching all available technologies up to tech level 50 in a specific category, you are presented with a set of Advanced Something Tech I to X to research.


The in-game description for all these levels reads: "General improvements of existing something technology.".


I couldn't find any answers on the Internet, and I don't notice a difference in the speed of ships with Advanced Propulsion Tech I.


Does anyone have information on what it actually does? Is there any actual advantage to researching it?


(You can see a full technology tree here: http://www.moo3.at/moo1/technologies.php).


Question from user Gustav Bertram at gaming.stackexchange.com.


Answer:

Advanced techs have two effects. They add to your end game score, and they raise your tech level in their field. Tech level is important because it affects ship part miniaturization. For every 10 levels you have in a tech field above the minimum required to use a part, they cost half as much money, and take up half as much space. Your tech level in a field is determined by taking the tech level of the most advanced technology you have researched in a field, and adding 1 for every less advanced technology researched in that field.
