Custom race Ive been tweaking for moons. Must have played about 20+ games with them and it never happened before the update.

That's a race trait of either Zenox or Ugnari (I can't remember which). It's from before the update, you get it every three or four years when you play the race.

this forum needs a "Strange Screenshots" thread too.

And one for strange folks who cant seem to get things right, like me [:D]

It must have been the tinkering with the race.txt, Ive been tinkering with that since August and never had something like that occur [:D]

I could swear that I have seen that prior to the beta, as I play heavy on research control.

Ugnari. And no, it's not. If I recall correctly, the message text is different (something about scientific tinkering or what-not).

But at first, I thought it was probably the Ugnari ability as well.
