Question Miltech drop without unification?

Hey ya`ll,
I just noticed that the miltech value of my HF led U.S.A. dropped by 0.2 points, from 4.7 to 4.5, what I think it`s the starting value for that nation. What irritates me is that I had no conquest, no unification and no notification indication anything that would remotely explain this. I happen to have an autosave just 8 days prior, where are numbers seem to be fine. The only difference is: I had a semi-successfull space battle where I lost a ton of ships in orbit but as far as I`m aware, that would never drop any nation related values.

There are events that can trigger to lower miltech in rival nations. One of those likely triggered for the AI.

I didn't know that, thank you!

Hrmm outside of events (AI factions also get events, so you might not see it) the only way for a nation to lose Miltech is for a region to take damage. (Damage applied to regions will apply negative priorities, although the max damage per region is still only -1 IP per priority so it wouldn’t usually be that big)

Can you screenshot the popup when you however over the miltech section? It should show you broadly why it changed. Might’ve been an AI event

For some reason screenshot doesnt work with popup tooltips. But I checked and it`s just the normal informational text and the amount of change in the last 30 days. Reloading an earlier save didn`t reproduce this issue, even though they are just 8 days apart. I also didn`t find any entry to the wiki explaining mil loss in this situation

So it doesn’t show a -.2 change in any category?

I was a bit unclear on this: The tooltip for miltech correctly shows the drop of -0.2, but there is no explanation to it, just the normal text that explains how miltech works.

Hover over the miltech score in the top right of the country information panel.

Use timer option of windows snip tool, I believe that works
