Tech Tree Data File
The data for the tech tree is stored in two different files.
- /Maps/Data/default.ttrx
- /Localize/LOCALEN/LocalText-TTR.csv
The .ttrx file is also in csv format. The ID column is used to match the text to the data. The columns in the .ttrx file are as follows;
- Tech ID
- Tech Category [1-6]
- Tech level of project
- Picture for tech (unused)
- First Prerequisite technology ID
- Second Prerequisite technology ID
- effect 1
- effect 2
- effectparm 1 - magnitude of effect (fractional)
- effectparm 2 - magnitude of effect
- time to research
- cost to research
- public support
- world support
- minister interest
- tradeable
- no research (not default set)
- unit prereq
- tech prereq
- facility prereq
- Is an Era Tech
- tech's name (comment)
Tech Effects

Categories
Tech Categories
- 1 - Warfare Techs
- 2 - Transportation Techs
- 3 - Science Techs
- 4 - Technology Techs
- 5 - Medical Techs
- 6 - Society Techs
When choosing a class, make sure you match it with your tech (ex: Laser Rifles is obviously a warfare tech and not a medical tech). The category determines which tree that the tech will appear in.
