RP distribution

[johndramey]

So, I'm not sure if I'm the only one that has 2+ research projects going at the same time. I've noticed that RP distribution for projects will always be Total RP/projects underway regardless of how many RPs are actually needed to finish the project, and this can lead to some waste.

For example, I need 2 RP to finish Starship Construction 1 and 6 RP to finish Planetary Construction 2. My colonies are producing 8 RP a turn, after I cycle my turn I'll finish Starship construction 1 (yay!) and still need 2 RP to finish Planetary Construction 2. I'm thinking that the unused RP should roll over to other projects if there are any queued up.

Also, would it be possible to have a "serial research" setting that will just dump all of your RP into the top project, but allow you to queue projects to go after you finish?

Just a quick wish, can we have an option to delete ongoing projects. I accidentally picked two projects at once, and had to wait until both were finished before picking the one I really wanted. And it took a LONG time.

Yep, deleting a research project is on the must-have list!

No, that is not possible.

The rules are as follows ...

CP -- single spender, top of the queue
RP -- even spender, all in queue
EP -- random spender, pick one in queue

I got it now, thanks for the explanation

but ... we are missing features ...

"Pause Research on a Topic"

"Reorder Construction Queue"

"Cancel a Treaty"
