Summary0026199: There should be a way to see all science costs for a given ship type
DescriptionThere should be a way to see all science costs for a given ship type. If there's already a way to do this in-game, I don't know it. Players should be able to see how the costs are going to scale up so that they can make more informed decisions.

Perhaps C-clicking could be used for this.

This suggestion is asking for the bare minimum by just focusing on the science costs, since I know that showing all the other updated details could involve a lot of clutter. But being able to see the detailed higher versions of a ship even before you've invested in it would be a big QoL feature. Perhaps there could be a dropdown for switching between views of the different tech levels of a ship.

I'm confused about what is being asked for; you can see the science costs in the Tech menu. So you look at a ship and see what tech types upgrade it, then you look at the cost in the tech menu. There isn't any difference between the (say) mark 2 and mark 3 costs for most things that benefit ships, so it's quite easy to keep track of.

The ask is for all science costs for a given tech (sometimes specifically for the ship, as in the case of arks) to be inspectable. E.g., if Tech A has a tech cost which scales 500 - 1000 - 1500 - 2000 - 5000 - etc., then all of those tech costs can be viewed by the player in some way without having to actually spend science to see them.

Holding Ctl when hovering something in the science menu now tells you the cost for each upgrade
