:The formula returns the delta between the total points generated and the points that would be generated by the bomb. The above graph statically applies whether you detonate the smaller bomb first or last, the downside being that improving your bomb will still reward you but with significantly less points than before. A maxcap bomb (purple), and a 700 (red) and 1000 (orange) radius bomb are marked on the graph with horizontal lines.

* [[File:Radiation Collector.gif]] Radiation Collectors can be set to generate research points instead of power, if the engineers are bored and you're already rolling in power. Radiation collectors require a mix of tritium and oxygen to produce research points. These gasses are consumed at a very rapid pace when the rad collector is in research point production mode. Work together with science or atmos techs to increase the station's research point production at the temporary cost of power production. For reference, one room temperature tank with 50% tritium, 50% oxygen will produce a total of 50 research points with the most frequently used supermatter setup. More radiation will increase the rate at which research points are generated, and packing more moles of both gasses into the tank will increase the amount of time a rad collector will be able to generate research points.

* [[File:Ateslacoil.png]] Tesla Coronas (a variant of tesla coils) can be set using a screwdriver to generate research points instead of power, if the engineers are bored and you're already rolling in power. Unlike the radiation collector, it simply generates research points through electricity striking the object, not through variable gas mixtures. This means that although the Tesla Corona generates points more reliably, you don't have as many ways to increase the actual amount of points generated.

At the start of a round, if you don't have any other research directives you should strongly research in the following order:  
*Industrial Engineering
*All the tech that leads to Mining Technology and Advanced Mining Technology, including Industrial engineering. Without building additional servers you should be able to accomplish this in 11 minutes of round time.
*Applied Bluespace Research  
*Applied Bluespace Research, including mining satchels.
*Mining Technology and Advanced Mining Technology
*Tier 3, then 4 stock part technologies.
*Tier 3 stock part technologies (High Efficiency Parts, Advanced Electromagnetic Theory, Applied Bluespace Research, and Advanced Power Manipulation)
*Afterwards consider finish all medical technologies before nanites, robotics and firearms.
 
'''Industrial Engineering''' is available as soon as you get your first 7500 research points, unlocks tier 2 stock parts for machine upgrades, and unlocks the RPED. It's also a pre-requisite for ALL of the other research items suggested here, so it's probably a good idea to consider doing it first of all. Possibly the biggest benefit for Science from this technology is that that someone can grab an RPED and go update Cargo's Ore Redemption Machine (ORM) immediately after finishing this topic. If the ORM is upgraded before the miners bring back their first load, then right off the bat ore gathered increases 35% and miners get 35% more points to spend on directly upgrading their mining equipment... which ultimately helps them bring in more ore for Science!

The least efficient way is to upgrade by hand. Since the RPED unlocks at the same time as tier 2 parts, there's really no reason to ever do this unless your station for some incomprehensible reason just can't afford an RPED.

[[File:RPED.gif]] As a much more efficient alternative, you can use '''RPED (Rapid Part Exchange Device)''', which unlocks with the Industrial Engineering topic. That is, the RPED unlocks as soon as you actually have your first upgraded parts, so you should pretty much always be upgrading with an RPED. The RPED replaces each component in a machine with the highest component of its tier that's loaded in the RPED.

Latest revision as of 14:19, 24 April 2022

This page needs revising!

The following page is out of date and/or needs to be revised. If the page's guide needs revision, see here for an example.
The revision reason is: "Missing info about a lot of things, including new ammo types, shuttle construction and more."



Research & Development

  • R&D (not to be confused with the RD) consists of scientists spending (mostly) automatically generated research points on a tech web to unlock technology that can be used for various departments.
  • Essentially this means that a scientist in this modern world doesn't actually have to know any of the concepts he's working with; it's all about pressing science buttons and playing with the resulting toys! Ain't life grand?

How 2 Gain More Points: 4 Dummies

Ballmer Peak

  • DRINK ALCOHOL GODDAMNIT. If you drink juuuust the right amount of alcohol, you can research new technologies faster. However, if you drink too much alcohol, you research new technologies slower. As a scientist, instead of slurring, you start shouting out phrases from the pool below. Some of these phrases signify good blood alcohol levels, some of them signify pretty damn unhealthy blood alcohol levels.

Ballmer Phrases: The Good Sayings (indication that you've drank enough alcohol to get that sweet tech boost)

  • Hey guys, what if we rolled out a bluespace wiring system so mice can't destroy the powergrid anymore?
  • Hear me out here. What if, and this is just a theory, we made R&D controllable from our PDAs?
  • I'm thinking we should roll out a git repository for our research under the AGPLv3 license so that we can share it among the other stations freely.
  • I dunno about you guys, but IDs and PDAs being separate is clunky as fuck. Maybe we should merge them into a chip in our arms? That way they can't be stolen easily.
  • Why the fuck aren't we just making every pair of shoes into galoshes? We have the technology.

Windows ME Phrases: The Bad Sayings (indication that you've drank too much alcohol, please don't do RnD)

  • Yo man, what if, we like, uh, put a webserver that's automatically turned on with default admin passwords into every PDA?
  • So like, you know how we separate our codebase from the master copy that runs on our consumer boxes? What if we merged the two and undid the separation between codebase and server?
  • Dude, radical idea: H.O.N.K mechs but with no bananium required.
  • Best idea ever: Disposal pipes instead of hallways.

Tachyon-Doppler Array

Toxins bombs detonated at the test site generate points through the Tachyon-Doppler Research Array which records the size of the blast. Somehow this generates points. After a change 2018 the maximum amount of points you can get from a bomb and round is 50 000.

The formula returns the delta between the total points generated and the points that would be generated by the bomb. The above graph statically applies whether you detonate the smaller bomb first or last, the downside being that improving your bomb will still reward you but with significantly less points than before. A maxcap bomb (purple), and a 700 (red) and 1000 (orange) radius bomb are marked on the graph with horizontal lines.

Radiation Collectors/Tesla Corona Analyzers

  • Radiation Collectors can be set to generate research points instead of power, if the engineers are bored and you're already rolling in power. Radiation collectors require a mix of tritium and oxygen to produce research points. These gasses are consumed at a very rapid pace when the rad collector is in research point production mode. Work together with science or atmos techs to increase the station's research point production at the temporary cost of power production. For reference, one room temperature tank with 50% tritium, 50% oxygen will produce a total of 50 research points with the most frequently used supermatter setup. More radiation will increase the rate at which research points are generated, and packing more moles of both gasses into the tank will increase the amount of time a rad collector will be able to generate research points.
  • Tesla Coronas (a variant of tesla coils) can be set using a screwdriver on the circut board to generate research points instead of power, if the engineers are bored and you're already rolling in power. Unlike the radiation collector, it simply generates research points through electricity striking the object, not through variable gas mixtures. This means that although the Tesla Corona generates points more reliably, you don't have as many ways to increase the actual amount of points generated.

Tech Webs

Research points are generated at a static rate by the R&D Network (albeit more research points can be generated by the E.X.P.E.R.I-MENTOR) and can be spent on Technology Nodes at the console.

This is what your console will look like at the start of the round.

Simply click into any of the technologies to see what it requires and what it unlocks. The number next to each technology represents its cost. To unlock a technology, click the cost to spend your research points on it.

The console will update the screen to reflect your new research and send out a notification in chat.

At the start of a round, if you don't have any other research directives you should strongly research in the following order:

  • All the tech that leads to Mining Technology and Advanced Mining Technology, including Industrial engineering. Without building additional servers you should be able to accomplish this in 11 minutes of round time.
  • Applied Bluespace Research, including mining satchels.
  • Tier 3, then 4 stock part technologies.
  • Afterwards consider finish all medical technologies before nanites, robotics and firearms.

Industrial Engineering is available as soon as you get your first 7500 research points, unlocks tier 2 stock parts for machine upgrades, and unlocks the RPED. It's also a pre-requisite for ALL of the other research items suggested here, so it's probably a good idea to consider doing it first of all. Possibly the biggest benefit for Science from this technology is that that someone can grab an RPED and go update Cargo's Ore Redemption Machine (ORM) immediately after finishing this topic. If the ORM is upgraded before the miners bring back their first load, then right off the bat ore gathered increases 35% and miners get 35% more points to spend on directly upgrading their mining equipment... which ultimately helps them bring in more ore for Science!

Mining Technology and, later, Advanced Mining Technology will give mining the tools needed to bring back much more ore to stock your protolathe. That makes these high-priority topics for most rounds. To research Mining Technology (2500) requires Industrial Engineering (7500) first, then Basic Plasma Research (2500). Advanced Mining Technology requires a bit more work and you will research most of the tier 3 stock parts or their prereqs on your journey to researching it.

Applied Bluespace Research allows miners to get Mining Satchels of Holding and also opens up the Bluespace RPED, which makes machine upgrades (your responsibility!) trivial. This technology is available for 5000 research points after unlocking first-tier research topics Industrial Engineering (7500) and Basic Bluespace Theory (2500). This is also a Tier 3 stock part technology.

The Tier 3 stock part technologies are listed above.

  • Applied Bluespace Research (5000) requires Industrial Engineering (7500) and Basic Bluespace Theory (2500). It is also a good topic to research for you and mining, as mentioned above.
  • High Efficiency Parts (7500) requires Industrial Engineering (7500) and the basic research topic Data Theory (2500).
  • Advanced Electromagnetic Theory (3000) ONLY requires Electromagnetic Theory (2500), but you are basically spending 5500 points just for laser parts (which let the ORM generate more mining points for miners.)
  • Advanced Power Manipulation (2500) is the only one immediately available after researching Industrial Engineering (7500).

The diagram below gives a quick overview of the suggested early research priorities above.

File:Researchbasics.png

Certain round circumstances may call for different research early on (such as the lack of miners requiring the need for science to do mining themselves instead), talk to your fellow scientists and listen to your Research Director!

The progression is not linear and many research options require multiple pre-requisite technologies.

To assist in understanding: provided below is a diagram.

Note: Research tree depicted above is VERY out of date.

Deconstruction

Deconstruction is done through the Destructive Analyzer:

  1. Sync the Destructive Analyzer to the research computer if it's not synced.
  2. Insert an item into it.
  3. Use the computer.

The computer will show you the name of the object, if it unlocks any tech nodes, and how many materials you get from deconstruction.

The Destructive Analyzer will recover a portion of the materials contained inside scanned items and transfer it to a connected protolathe. Upgrading it will increase the amount recovered.

Illegal technology, alien technology can only be discovered then researched by inserting a syndicate and/or abductor exclusive item into the Destructive analyzer.

Construction

See here how to build machines out of the components you discover. This is where advanced technology you discovered by increasing tech trees will be made. Nothing exciting at first can be built, but you will get increasingly more fun devices as tech trees increase. You will unlock items for the Exosuit Fabricator as well.

Upgrading Machines

All machines are composed of components. There are better versions of many components, attained through research. They are organized in 4 tiers, and upgrading the tier of a machine's components will have different effects for each machine.

Without minerals, you can achieve up to tier 2-3; to go further you'll require ores for production.

Tier 2 parts are all unlocked with "Industrial Engineering," which also unlocks the RPED. Others are unlocked as noted.

Stock Parts
Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3 Tier 4 Usual Effect
Micro-Manipulator Nano-Manipulator Pico-Manipulator1 Femto-Manipulator5 Improves speed and efficiency.
Basic Matter Bin Advanced Matter Bin Super Matter Bin1 Bluespace Matter Bin5 Improves capacity.
Basic Micro-Laser High-Power Micro-Laser Ultra-High-Power Micro-Laser2 Quad-Ultra Micro-Laser6 Improves speed and efficiency.
Basic Scanning Module Advanced Scanning Module Phasic Scanning Module3 Triphasic Scanning Module5 Improves scanning precision.
Basic Capacitor Advanced Capacitor Super Capacitor4 Quadratic Capacitor7 Improves power efficiency.

1: Unlocked with High Efficiency Parts
2: Unlocked with Advanced Electromagnetic Theory
3: Unlocked with Applied Bluespace Research
4: Unlocked with Advanced Power Manipulation
5: Unlocked with Miniaturized Bluespace Research
6: Unlocked with Quantum Electromagnetic Technology
7: Unlocked with Bluespace Power Technology


Once you unlock advanced components, people around the station will probably want you to upgrade the machinery. Overall, the process is simply replacing obsolete stock parts with higher-tier parts.

The least efficient way is to upgrade by hand. Since the RPED unlocks at the same time as tier 2 parts, there's really no reason to ever do this unless your station for some incomprehensible reason just can't afford an RPED.

  1. Screwdriver on the machine.
  2. Crowbar on the machine.
  3. Take the board and re-insert it into machine.
  4. Insert parts you want to use.
  5. Screwdriver the machine closed.

As a much more efficient alternative, you can use RPED (Rapid Part Exchange Device), which unlocks with the Industrial Engineering topic. That is, the RPED unlocks as soon as you actually have your first upgraded parts, so you should pretty much always be upgrading with an RPED. The RPED replaces each component in a machine with the highest component of its tier that's loaded in the RPED.

  1. Load RPED with parts, such as stock parts, loaded power cells, beakers and vendor restocking units.
  2. Screwdriver on the machine.
  3. Click on it with RPED.
  4. Screwdriver again to close the machine.

The best alternative is to use the even more advanced Bluespace Rapid Part Exchange Device (BRPED), which functions just like an RPED except that you don't need access to the machine, screwdrivers, or even adjacency! That's right: BRPED works even through camera views. Consider building a camera console in R&D once you have a BRPED instead of running all over the station. This device is unlocked with Applied Bluespace Research and operates as follows:

  1. Load Bluespace RPED with parts, such as stock parts, loaded power cells, beakers and vendor restocking units.
  2. Click on the machine to upgrade with the Bluespace RPED. That's it! No screwdrivering or asking the AI or people to open doors into their departments.


Here you can see how the specific machines will benefit from parts.

Exosuit Fabricator

  • Robotics starts with two of these. This machine will build everything a roboticist needs to do his job, aside from circuits. To update its research levels:
    • Sync the R&D Research Console.
    • Sync the Robotics Research Console.
    • Sync the Exosuit Fabricator.
  • Can be used directly, without the Research Console.

Circuit Imprinter

  • The Circuit Imprinter requires glass and occasionally gold or diamond. Here you will find circuits for most of the station's machinery and robotics' exosuits. With gold and diamonds, you can also make AI law modules.
  • Information on how to construct machines is available at the Guide to advanced construction.
  • Circuits cost 1000 glass each, becoming cheaper with upgrades.

Protolathe

  • The departmental Protolathe requires materials such as metal, glass and mineable minerals. Each sheet gives 2000 units when inserted into a Protolathe or its connected Ore Silo. It allows you to build objects such as stock parts, power cells and much more, depending on department.
  • Building 5 or 10 of the same item is faster than building it one at a time for 10 times; if you need lots of a particular item, mass produce them!

Techfab

  • The departmental Techfabs are circuit imprinters and departmental protolathes combined, except their available circuit boards differ depending on their department.
