The maximum bonus of follower robot count is already reached (10) but I still can research follower robot count (I'm now at follower robot count level 18), and every research the science pack cost increases by 200. (The science pack cost for the next level is 2200) It's because of my save or what?

I'm using these Mods:

- Time Buttons
- Tree farm

My save: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/268 ... 20Save.zip

if i am correct, robot follower count research goes till 20, then it ends.
but then again, i could be mistaken

but if im right, not a bug

Maybe, but the bonus goes only to 10 robots and this bonus is reached with research level 11, and the following 9 research levels are "useless"

Or the tooltip shows this wrong.

You're misunderstanding the tooltip. It adds 10 per research, they all stack. So by the end I think you get about 150 robots. With level 7, you have 19.

Okay, I'm misunderstanding the tooltip
