Research

Research (Scientific Research) is conducted at Universities, Research Centers or University Modules in Modules Foundation buildings to unlock the 60 available technologies in the game. Education increases research speed, and Cryptocurrencies and Buildings can be used to further speed up research.

Some research items have requirements before they can be researched. They may require a Research Center, a certain level of Honor Points, or another researched technology.

Description
After building the necessary buildings to start research, the research panel unlocks and presents 4 categories of city improvements, each with 15 technologies, making up a total of 60 technologies in the game.

Only one research item may be researched at anytime. There is no research queue, but switching to another technology will save the progress of the previous in-progress research, so progress is never lost.

Completing a research will mark the research with a tick symbol, but will not remove the research from the research panel.

Speeding Up Research
Research can be sped up by the following ways:
 * Increase Education via buildings (e.g. School, Medical College, etc.)
 * Spend 2500 Cryptocurrencies to speed up research for 3 days (further 2500¢ payments will simply add +3 to this duration)
 * Research the technology Neural Network (+5% Research Speed)

Unlocking Higher Research
A Research Center is required to unlock the third level of research in each of the 4 categories. These third level technologies are placed at the bottom row of the research table.

List of Research and Technologies
There are four categories of research.
