Research progress lost

Post by Nighty »

Problem:
If I cancel one research program, start and finish another one and restart the old research program it will starts from the beginning again.
Ex.: start Research A > cancel Research A before finish > start Research B > start Research A again after finished Research B
Result: Research point of Research A is lost

Version: 0.12.24 Steam

Hi, you mean it is a feature? :D

Could you guys change this cause it is not how it goes in real life^^. I mean if we learn something and pause our researches to a topic for a moment we don't loose our knowledge. Do you plan to change this in the game?
