The Research Lab is where you build new technologies. Generally technologies can do one of the following things:

Some technologies have certain prerequisites, such as a certain level Research Lab or a certain level of another technology. They will not appear in your Research Lab until you've reached the requisite minimums.

Notes

  • You can only have one research project in progress at any given time, regardless of how many labs you have. To take advantage of multiple research labs, you must research Advanced Research Communications Network.
  • Research can be canceled before completion for a full refund of resources.
  • To research some technologies, a certain research lab level in the planet must be reached.
  • Research labs can use only resources currently on the planet where the research is to be started.
  • To use resources from another planet for research, it must be transported from other planets to the planet with the research lab.
  • To increase research speed, you need Lab Droids (2% per Lab Droid), or worker friends (4% per friend), or a scientist (25%).
  • The number of workers that can be used depends on the research lab level. You may add one worker to a Lab, plus one extra worker for every 3 levels. (So a level 3, 4 or 5 Lab can have 2 workers, a level 6 may have 3, etc.)

10 102,400 204,800 102,400 18.18

Research Time

The time it takes to research a new technology is determined by the following formula:

Time(hours) =
(Ore Cost + Crystal Cost) * (1 - Research Bonus%)
1000 * (1 + Research Lab Level)

Where Research Bonus% is 0.02 per Lab Droid, 0.04 per worker friend, and 0.25 per Scientist assigned to your Research Lab.
