Advanced Research

Research is a task delegated to the science officer that unlocks additional talents for their crew mates ranging from extra stamina to scanner upgrades, to bonus reactor power.

Research is done by adding research materials, found on planets, that state they contain specific base components in their description to the Atomizer and then clicking the 'Ready' button. This adds the research components from that item into your material storage, shown at the top of your Research Lab's screen. Adding more materials unlocks more research projects. After gaining enough materials to research a project, the task can be started by clicking the 'Research' button. The research will automatically complete after a certain number of warp jumps, with the number of jumps needed displayed on the screen. The engineer can also manually charge the systems to simulate a jump for your researching (can complete research without jumping).
