There seems to be a major issue with the research system.
Some techs have eg only a 60 or 80% chance to be selected as the next research topic.
Eg
100% - Basic weight control
80% - Testing tank for hull form
100% - Improved rolled shipbuilding steel
100% - Longitudinal framing
100% - Improved weight control
What should happen:
After "Basic weight control"is finished, it should roll the dice on "Testing tank for hull form".
Option 1 (80%): "Testing tank for hull form" will be researched next.
Option 2 (20% * 100%): "Improved rolled shipbuilding steel" is researched next.
If Option 2 & "Improved rolled shipbuilding steel" is completed, then it should go
Option 2.1 (80%): "Testing tank for hull form" will be researched next.
Option 2.2 (20% * 100%): "Longitudinal framing" is researched next.
And so on. After every completed research in that area, it should roll the dice on the skipped techs.
What actually seems to happen:
If Option 2 & "Improved rolled shipbuilding steel" is completed,
Option 2.1 (100%): "Longitudinal framing" is researched next.
The next in line research item seems to take priority over the previously skipped research item.
Which is a near game breaking problem when that research item is significant,
and that tech is non-spreading,
and nearly the whole rest of the research area consists of 100% items,
and the following research items are big and spaced out over time,
and intelligence on high on all the other nations seems to be unable to steel research like in RTW 2...
