There isnt a tech tree 
Its just level based now. So if you have 90 technology, you can build stuff that requires 90 technology to build. Build research bases to get Research up, then Technology will slowly rise to that level over time, depending on how much population the planet has.

maybe we should make it that the level of the gadget also affects the planets max level it can mod to. And the price.
Why would a TL 90 planet pay top dollar for a TL1 item, a TL 10 planet might buy and sell TL 50 items for more than their value at a TL50 planet...

I like the idea of tieing the planets tech level directly to how high you can mod your devices when in orbit. Would fit very nicely with the current system, each 10 tech allows an extra upgrade level.
Having the "buy" price adjusted by quantity and tech level on planet could work, except the tech level could be artificially manipulated by players.
I am thinking of ways this could still be implemented.
Lets do some math 
BuyPrice = (0.01*((DeviceLVL*10)/PlanetTechLVL)-0.01)*ItemBaseValue+ItemBaseValue
This should give a +/-10% variation in item prices.
Now we need to adjust this modifier value by the quantity of that item in the starport. 0 would be 100% of the modifier value. 100 items would be 0% of the modifier value. For that maximum limit I will use a QTYMod variable.
((QTYMod/StarPortQTY)-1)*(0.01*((DeviceLVL*10)/PlanetTechLVL)-0.01)*ItemBaseValue+ItemBaseValue
This will in effect reduce the amount a staport will pay comapred to base value if it goes over the QTYMod value.
Or something like that

Still playing with that math, but it seems ok.
