The corollary to that is that with a skill tree, only the skills in the tree compete with each other. With items, they all compete with each other, so if certain items dominate, all players will use just those items.

I drove 1,100+ miles in the last 2 days and never managed to even leave the state. Texas is kind of big.

Heh! My step-sister lives in Texas and would agree with you. California's kinda big too, especially if you have to drive from the northern end down to San Diego!

I fixed races being big babies. If one of their planets or ships was hit by an asteroid, they would get upset and declare war on the player.

I haven't compiled the latest game on the Mac for a while. I had to fix a bunch of minor compile issues, but now it works again.
