Hello,

This could be a really simple request or not. I have no idea how the program is actually written... right now all of the arrows/triangles to get to the most current tech level are purple. Most of these point to something that is 0 out of X research spent but usually one points to something that has research already done on it. Can we simply get the arrow color to change to say 'yellow' or 'green' if it is pointing to 12,000 out of 25,000? It's getting really tedious expanding all of the tree branches twice a day trying to find my last research path. I tried writing myself post-it notes as reminders but half the time I play from work over lunch and it does me no good if the notes are at home. :/

Just a simple request.

ok so do you want different colour arrows or do you want arrows added that automatically go to the last box, or both?

Really the function of the arrows/triangles/whatever is just fine now. Some don't always bring me to the latest level but that might be a minor glitch. I'm just looking to see 7 purple arrows and 1 yellow so I can remember what I was researching last. If I see 2 yellow arrows then I'll know I started something and need to get back to it.

That's actually a pretty good idea, especially for those who are hard of memory. It WOULD make it easier to see which tree you were working on last.

To make the idea clearer: Any research tree with partial research completed would have a different color arrow to click to the end of the tree.

Another idea: Make the end of the research trees the default load setting. I very rarely need to see where the research tree started.
