Research Rule

I`ll give you some toughness therapy :-)

*takes out `therapy` stick

I was not trying to be unpleasant Cinnamon. I was more ragging on that box than anything else. I also think there are people far more qualified than me that could rebuild the manual to be far more useful. I use it mainly for ship stats and was unaware at its shortcomings.

the manual is soo outdated its a joke >.<

best place to find information now is from the older players :)

the amount of turns required for each infrastructure level is based upon the total amount u have researched so far ... eg if u have 50 on housing and 50 on commercial u have done 100 levels in total...

turns required =
from 1 - 32 = less than 750
33-101= 750
102-254 = 2500

i may be a lil out but that`s what i remembered the research levels to be.

There are exceptions with free infrastructure levels from terren and miner missions which do not add to the total inf level u have eg miners can have a max off 259 levels of infrastructure (254 of thier own + 5 mining from missions )

The other day I was staring absently at the little box that explains this under every research page and thought, "well thats a pretty useless thing to always have around". Instead of changing my mind Cinnamon you have cemented my belief. Obviously even those who need to know that information aren`t reading it.

Cinnamon while I support your quest for knowledge of the game because that might lead to you becoming a better player I must agree with Chaos. I strongly urge you to read the manual, it is a very good resource ot have gone through.

RTFM pls.
well as said on the page and Imagine{A{Cool{Name, it`s the total sum of levels, regardless of spreading between different areas.

The total of all of the infrastructure research effects research time, not just the total from 1 category.
