I recently installed some mods into my game to challenge myself. Now, fort some reason, whenever I save and reload the same save game file, the research resets itself back to zero. What happened?

Any help in this matter would be appreciated.

That would depend on which mods you installed? Most don't affect research at all but some do a whole lot. Either way, there should be no chamge at all if you save now and then immediately load the save. That would be gane-breaking.

Are you using the Grey Goo mod? That mod has a bug which resets research on map load - it's been there forever and is noted in the mods discussion page.

Yes, I did. That would explain it. I'm uninstalling it now as we speak. Thank you.
