Technology

A technology is researched in the research panel and usually unlocks an ability or modifier.

Research

Technologies are randomly rolled and the tech tree is non-linear, therefore techs are not predetermined.

Weight

Roll weight is the likelihood of rolling a technology. When techs are rolled, all other unlocked tech weights are also considered.
