Research Queue

Streamline Your Research with the Oxygen Not Included Research Queue Mod

Navigating the intricate technology tree in Oxygen Not Included can be a complex task. As your duplicant colony grows and demands new advancements, managing the research process efficiently becomes crucial for survival and prosperity. Introducing the Research Queue mod, designed to bring order and foresight to your technological progression.

Unlock the Power of Planned Research

This powerful mod introduces a simple yet incredibly effective system for managing your research projects. Instead of manually selecting each technology one after another, you can now plan your research endeavors in advance. The Research Queue mod allows you to chain multiple technologies together, ensuring that your duplicants are always working towards the next vital advancement without any downtime.

Key Features for Enhanced Efficiency:

• Intuitive Queueing: Simply hold down the SHIFT key while clicking on a technology in the Tech Tree. This action will not only add the selected technology to your queue but also automatically include any prerequisite technologies that must be researched first.
• Clear Progression: Each technology in your queue will be clearly numbered, indicating the exact order in which your research facilities will tackle them. This visual cue provides a clear roadmap for your colony’s technological future.
• Easy Management: Need to change your plans? SHIFT-clicking a technology that is already in your queue will remove it, along with any subsequent dependent technologies. This allows for dynamic adjustments to your research strategy as new priorities emerge.
• Persistent Planning: The research queue you set up is saved with your game. This means you can pick up right where you left off, even after loading a saved game, ensuring continuity in your colony’s development.

Understanding Limitations

While the Research Queue mod significantly enhances research management, it’s important to note its core functionality. The mod strictly adheres to the order you establish in the queue. It will not skip ahead to research a technology further down the line if an earlier one is still pending, even if the earlier technology is blocked (e.g., due to the lack of a Super Computer or Virtual Planetarium). Planning your queue with these dependencies in mind will yield the best results.

Embrace a more organized and proactive approach to research in Oxygen Not Included with the Research Queue mod. Keep your duplicants busy, your technology advancing, and your colony thriving!
