TL;DR
Allow labs to output all currently available research technologies and their levels via the circuit network.What?
Add a circuit network output to the new 2.1 lab that reports every currently available research.For each available technology, the lab would output:
The technology's signal/icon.
Its current research level (or 1 for non-repeatable technologies).
Example:
- 06-26-2026, 00-44-07.png (57.3 KiB) Viewed 79 times
Why?
This would make it possible to build more advanced research automation using the circuit network.Currently, circuit logic can only react to the active research, making it difficult to implement more sophisticated decision-making. Being able to read all available research options would allow players to automatically choose the next technology based on custom priorities, available resources, or other circuit conditions instead of relying on simple sequential logic.
