MT Technology
How much tech will I get? This is still not precisely known, but the higher your current tech, the less tech you get and the more minerals you give, the more tech you get - usually. See also MT
The following is excerpts from the Some answers about common MT questions thread in the academy at HWF

Did some quick test, and it seems to me that:
- up to 59 techlevels you get 6 levels and 1 for each 1200kT up to 9800kT
- from 60 levels on get 1 less level from the first 5000kT, and 1 for each separate 1200kT, up to 89 levels (where you get 3 levels for 5000kT and 7 levels for 9800kT), so it is always worth it to give the bonus if you got less than 90 techlevel.
- from level 90 on you get 2 levels of tech, regardles of giving 5000kT or 9800kT!!! this is valid up to at least 102 techlevels.
- from some point between 102 and 108 techlevels (i guess 105) you get only 1 level regardles how much mins you give the MT.
so:
- if you have less than 90 techelvels, give 9800kT
- if you got 90 or more techlevels, give him 5000kT
Maybe this is not completely correct, but what my short (2 hours) test showed me...
(I am not completely sure about the breakpoint, my excel sheet i did during the tests show a breakpoint between 59 and 60, and another one between 80 and 81... maybe one of them is wrong? maybe sometimes it is before finishing the next 10, sometimes after that...)

Having performed some analysis, I can confirm the breakpoints in terms of tech levels before you meet the trader are: 108, 96, 84, 72 and 60.
I don't think the table above is entirely correct.
