Comment 1 for bug 895970

I understand the sentiment of this request and there's nothing inherently wrong with giving modders the option of the good ol' tech level slider, but in all honesty, 3 or 4 extra game modes can be added to cover the majority of possibilities that a tech level slider would allow, and with the possibility to modify certain units to individually decrease the "tech level" of a unit (like a chrono miner with its teleport function disabled, or something like that).

Although the tech level slider is a bit more intuitive and perhaps a tad easier to understand, having "T1," T2," and "T3 game modes is a pretty simple and very flexible alternative with no drawbacks in functionality (as far as I am aware, at least).
