Default Science.ini

Because they look like each other (But are NOT related!) Science.ini

These are the Intrinsic Sciences. They are given to a faction from PlayerTemplate.ini, and must be named in there in order to work.
Do not modify these, just copy/paste them with a different Science name, and don't forget to call them in PlayerTemplate.ini.

These are the Science levels. They go from 1 to 8. Do not modify these. They are used troughout the game and the entire file, so don't modify these!

Science What for science is this?
PrerequisiteSciences What for sciences do I need first?
This seems simple, but needs attention. For a seperate science, specify the housescience, like SCIENCE_AMERICA . Then, specify the needed rank. Remember, Science_Rank1 doesn't mean it shouldn't be named! ALWAYS specify the required rank.
SciencePurchasePointCost How much science points does this science costs? When 0, this doesn't mean the Science is free! It means not buyable. Also noted:

IsGrantable Can this science be bought?
DisplayName What for string should I look in the CSF file for the name?
Description What for string should I look for in the CSF file for the description?
