New research confusing to understand?

[supergaming]

Im probably missing something but the old research made lots of sense with how it worked and the new one confuses me a lot as my research labs keep blowing up and i dont know why so i just dont use the reasearch. I dont get why they explode and its really confusing me, you doing great though making this game i love it.

you should it is really powerful. the change is that each reserch centers can be used for any research but as a toggle on/off. let me expand this: you could have 10 research centers toggled on increase domage for turrets. that would bring your total domage to 2x and it will consume 20 (10 research centers x 2 essence each = 20) essence per second. The most powerful researches are essence yeild and gold yield they will dromastically boost your base expansion

So you're saying they changed the research from an actual research tree to a literally just a stat booster? That's dumb AF. No wonder I haven't gotten a "research completed"

oh so you need to have enough essance to keep suppplying the research stations that makes snense thx

the new research system is really annoying... it would probably be slightly more bearable, if base expansion was not so tedious.

The new research system seems like it sucks, I like having an unlockable tree and feel of progression, not a lame stat booster thing

So when we research something it's technically done? Like I'm waiting for it to say research complete but it just says cancel research. It is very confusing. I just started playing after seeing someone play it on twitch so I haven't seen any other versions how they worked.

No, that was the way research worked before the last patch.

Now every research lab holds boost that cost resources to maintain until its canceled or until you run out of the resource to maintain it.
Horrible rework in my opinion...

The real problem about this for me as a newbie (I started playing yesterday or stuff), is not that the breakdown was definitely not explained in the game mechanisms and that I had a hard time spotting out what was the issue,
I will also say that it's not the fact that both gold upgrades look the same.

The real issue for me is having some of my essence storages completely full even though I consume more than I can with the gold upgrade, and yet it does not empty the storage near full essence collectors, it's not even related to the proximity of labs or such.

Also I might have found a bug since you have time to duplicate labs upgrade before the breakdown, I don't know if it's just graphic or gameplay

edit :
if you implements blueprints, I might forgive you.

how do you keep the stations from blowing up? mine just like to randomly explode and i'm not sure why

[Anomie]

it only happened when I didn't have ressource production for me.

It may be a little confusing at first but it's super OP hahaha

~~I have plenty of essence is production/stored and if I build 4+ labs with researches, they blow up. The game talks about a cooler block but there's no such thing. Just a chiller weapon.~~ Found out I didn't have the iridium in production enough to handle it.
