I figured out what the problem was. It has to do with me using duel requirements. To get the component pic to show up I had to change the Requirements Evaluation Availability to the number of the controlling requirement. In the example from my component the tech area “C&C” is the controller and the tech area “High Tech” is the restrictor so the controller can not be researched until the restrictor has been satisfied.

Number Of Requirements:= 2
Requirements Evaluation Availability:= 1
Requirements Evaluation Allows Placement:= TRUE
Requirements Evaluation Allows Usage:= TRUE
Requirement 1 Description:= Empire must have achieved C&C tech level 1.
Requirement 1 Formula:= (Get_Empire_Tech_Level("C&C") = 1) AND (Get_Empire_Tech_Level("C&C") < 2)
Requirement 2 Description:= Empire must have achieved High Tech level 1.
Requirement 2 Formula:= Get_Empire_Tech_Level("High Tech") >= 1
