For 3.3.x

This is the Vanilla version, for the Gigastructures version, go here:

This mod introduces a set of three Policies that are unlocked once you have researched at least one Repeatable Technology.

These policies determine what Repeatable Technology your Scientists will research when Auto-Research is enabled, when they are drawn as a Research Option. For example, if you choose to prioritize Flash Coolants for Physics Research, then whenever you are Auto-Researching and Flash Coolants is one of the available Research Options, it will be picked.

As of 1.1, you can also prioritize by category as well as per technology: Laser, Kinetic, Explosive, Defense Platform, and Strike Craft options now exist that will increase weights of all technologies within that category.

What this mod does NOT do is affect the CHANCE of these Technologies appearing as a Research Option: if the Technology you've chosen doesn't get drawn as Research Option for that research cycle, then you'll have to wait through a round of non-prioritized researching.

This is done to make Auto-Research less stupid, while remaining close to vanilla balance. Now you can prioritize a certain type of Repeatable without having to micro-manage!


This mod overwrites all vanilla infinitely repeatable research options. It will be incompatible with mods that change these research options.

It will not support mods which add new infinite Repeatables, but mods which add new infinite Repeatables can still be used alongside this mod: there just won't be a way to prioritize the modded Repeatables. Because this mod was tedious to make, I will not create patches for modded Repeatables unless the mod they come from is *very* popular. I wish there was a better way to do this (maybe there is, IDK! Enlighten me) but if this really is the best way, then the only way to create patches is through tedious list-making that requires an overwrite for each Technology affected.

TLDR: I've done something for Gigastructures, but probably for nothing else. If you want a version for your specific modset, I encourage and endorse forking this and making your own version that adds weights for your playsets!
