Basics

  • Research is performed in Laboratories.
  • Every technology has certain amount of units that are needed to be researched, the logistics 1 technology in the example requires 20 units.
  • Every unit requires certain combination of science packs, these has to be created and transported into the lab before it can start with the research.
  • When the laboratory has all the needed ingredients, it starts researching one unit, the time to research the unit varies from technology to technology.
  • The more laboratories are researching at the same time, the shorter time it takes to get all the units required.
