Koios Research

Studies give Research Points that buy timed research. Affording a research is not finishing it.

Unlock: own Koios.
Studies run on ticks. They give Research Points (RP).
Research Center parts: Bio-Scientists, Equipment, Quantum Tech, and a timed catalogue.
Completed research stays through resets. Scientists and studies need rebuilding.
A common stage slowdown sits around 1e50 to 1e65 MP in community guides. Accumulative growth mods (like Fenix) are the escape.
A research that raises install caps appears around 1e500 RP. After it, you can specialize installs much harder.
Pick research by what it unlocks and when. A smaller bonus that finishes before your next reset can beat a bigger one that takes days.
Do not reset a mature study run for a weak MP gain.
Patch .64 changed extra-study mods and research 91 retention. Old rate numbers may be wrong.
