Ok, i've tried asking the creation people this, but there is hardly ever anyone there?!?!!?

So, do you guys know how the size of a random map affects the research rates of techs during a game? Is it on a scale based on the large/med/small map system? and is it based on the actual number of squares rather than dimensions, or is it more complex!??! and does a flat world make any difference?
Cheers guys, just had a bit of an idea...

Oldman - I haven't tested maps other than standard small and large, and I haven't tested flat maps. I don't think Caesar has tested them either; I would bet that area is the driver and flat doesn't matter - but that is a total guess. I am messing around with the rules text to try to improve AI research paths, so I am testing some games now, I'll check out a couple of other maps (at least for the first 10 techs)

Yes its on a scale of small/medium/large. Sten is correct, flat maps make no difference what so ever, I just completed up to tech 20, identical results.
