I really hope not, this was so useful as I try desperately to grasp this complex game

Is this thread dead now?

Apparently I didn't correctly subscribe to this thread, sorry for the delay.

I created it with perl, bash, a mysql server, and a package called graphviz.  Feel free to link, use, and generally do whatever you want with it.  There's plenty of room for improvement, I was just in the mood to automate something.  I threw it all in a little github repo so it's easy to distribute:

(I tried putting it in quote tags instead of url tags and it still broke the links).  Let me know if you run into trouble, assuming I get the email set up right this time.

I was about to start up building these for the new version, but your script is much better. I think what I'll do is use your script to gather the data and just design mine using yours as the information source. But I have a few questions.

Which language did you build the script in, and could I get a copy of it (and the latest result from it). Also, would you mind if I linked your work on the first post for new users to see?

With a "Trans-Newtonian" node included: https://i.mgur.com/CZnZ8Ma.jpg
Without it (because it's nicer without with so many lines): https://i.imgur.com/rBTCZYd.jpg

Quoted, to un-break the links.

I don't know if anybody would want this, but I saw you mention how long it takes to make these, followed by saying it was in a database, so I put together a little script that makes the proper queries and automatically generates the trees.   It's not as pretty or full featured as yours, but it does take less than a second to generate :)

If there's interest I'll put up a pdf version so it's more searchable, and I can put the code up somewhere too.   I just ported it from Access to MYSQL, and then it's just two queries, a few print statements, and a graphviz command to make these.   I'm sure someone with query experience in MS Access can bypass the SQL part too (the perl library I'm using has access and sql functions, I just have zero experience with access).   I also think I can easily add the RP requirements to the nodes, if that's of interest.

I got caught up with uni and forgot about Aurora until recently. Since the game has gone through many changes, I'll have to start from scratch, but I need to spend some time playing and getting back into it again.

Is this dead again? I'm new to the game and the tech tree is overwhelming.

As a new player this was very handy, thanks!

Sorry about my long absence, I had lost interest in Aurora right after v6 came out, and I forgot about my project. I noticed we've had two new versions released since I was last here, so I'll start working on the v6.2 tech tree. I'll leave the previous works up on the first post until I can catch up with the new one.

Kind of ironic that the day most people are taking a break, I'm getting back to work  :-\ Oh well... I hope everyone has a pleasant (whatever you celebrate), and I will hopefully have some useful data up within the week, if I dont get sidetracked like I usually do (although now I don't have school as an excuse.)

I would suggest you look at 6 to see if there is a big difference.  I suspect the techs will not change all that much.  If so, you might as well do the tech tree for six while adding comments about any differences from 5.

Turmoil -

I deeply appreciate your work. 

Am brand new, already hooked, your tech trees will be invaluable.

Sorry for my absence, just bought a new laptop. I am so excited for v6, and am surprised we're already on the first patch! Now I need to know if everyone would like me to continue with the v5 tech tree or modify it for v6 now. I haven't even started playing yet, so I don't know how much it's changed. Really its up to you guys and Erik.

Thank Erik.  That will make it easier to organize.

railguns also get an extra shot.
