Informing about research requirements for unreasearched units.

May I suggest to make it easier for players to find out what researches are required to research a certain unit.

For example (First go to the research tab). If you move your cursor over the research box of a random unit, it will either say:

- Research not yet available.

- No free research slot available.

- Requirements not yet fullfilled.

- Research finished.

Requirements not yet fullfilled.

This is useless information. It doesn't say what you should have researched. Sometimes it's quite obvious what you schould have researched. Like you need interceptor level 2 research finished before you can do level 3 research. But if you want to research the railroadgun, it doesn't say what the research requirements are to start this research. You have to go through all the other tabs to find out what it is required... I think this can be made more user friendly. Simply show what requirements are not fullfilled wenn you move your cursor over it.

Click on what you want to research and on the bottom right theres a little circled i click on it and it tells you what you need to research for that weapon.

No it doesn't. It tells you what stats the unit has that you want research. It doesn't give you the research requirements.

on the top of the page on mine it says Requirements (in a single province)

And what word is standing above "Requirements (in a single province)"?

Production

What is the link between production requirements and research requirements?

If you click on the research icon to select it, look on the right hand side panel and at the bottom.

As you can see, there is a "Requires:" at the bottom of the panel, which tells you the requirements of the research, as well as highlighting in red all the reasons you cannot pursue the research.

The stuff in red includes the day you need to be at.

What a joke, your CoW version is much better than mine. In this rocket interceptor example I don't have the option to scroll down further to see any requirements for research. I just went through all the research tabs and it only shows me this information for nucleair energy and nucleair bombs.

Before you can produce something you must research it first (production and research are not synonyms). What you are showing are production requirements (like level 'Y' infrastructure and level 'X' industrial complex in the same province and research 'Z' fullfilled), not research requirements. Kalantigos showed in his screenshot where to find the research requirements. However, it seems like Bytro has done a poor job at making the requirements for research visible for everyone.
