Tech Cube Glitch (SOLVED, user error)
After placing a cube by a level 2, 3 or 4 tech, passing your turn moves the cube to a level 1 tech position and locks it in place. Both times I have played, we have to unlock the cube, replace it beside the tech we researched, then lock it again.

P. S. I was iffy on whether I would like this game or not. Thank you SO MUCH for producing an official mod on TTS. After playing it, I have absolutely fallen in love with this game and am confident it will end up in my collection once it is back in stock.

SOLUTION: The placed cards must not form a deck. You have to remove or lock the event before placing the tech in its proper place, otherwise the scripting will not recognize it.

When you pass your turn, the mod automatically "moves up" any unlocked cubes on the board. That way you can see the order in which players researched a tech.
It does this by finding the closest tech card and the highest unoccupied dice position for said card.

I've just tested it and it seems to be working fine for me.
Can you confirm:
1) the level 2/3/4 tech cards have the "Tech" tag (right click on the card and select Tags, you should see "Tech" in blue).
2) the tech card was in the appropriate position on the board before turn was passed.

Figured it out. You must lock or remove the event card before placing the tech, otherwise it stacks into a deck and the scripting does not read it properly.

Huge props for quick response. I'm really sorry to have wasted your time. Feel free to terminate the discussion, or I can edit the title to reflect the answer.

Eh, it happens. I didn't even consider that someone might leave the event card in place.
What's important is that you can now enjoy the game with my script helping rather than annoying you.
