Research & Development Costs - Mod Support

Ever thought it was kind of weird how all the research in the game is free? Looking for an additional challenge? This is the mod for you!

This mod adds costs to research under the logic that proper R&D requires materials and prototypes to experiment with and then perfect to create a final product. Most will require resources while some will require completed items of prior tiers or related products.
The goal is to add both additional challenge by making you think more about resource management on what you're going to research, and if/when you do instead of relying solely on time and colonist skill.

This version of the R&D mod is intended to fully integrate primarily with Old Earth Tech Redux (and it's add-ons) and New Earth Tech, and the goal is to create the ultimate "caveman" to "space age" technology progression experience. Your survivors will have to work very hard for this, and thus the challenge will be high. I recommend not using this on solo or minimal survivor count runs.

Generally speaking, the costs are one to three times what it takes to craft or build one item depending on their tier and resource cost to build/create, though there are some with variations with techs that unlock multiple items that use different materials. I tried to keep things fair without costs being trivial.

This goes without saying, but DO NOT use this mod at the same time as the Vanilla version! You'll get conflicts galore! Pick one or the other.

Robots & Guardians DLC is required for certain techs, such as the AI Research Desk from NET, as they are reliant on the resources from it.
