Tech Webs

What are Tech Webs?

Tech webs refer to the research options on the Core R&D console, named due to the normal view look in the technology section of the console. Each technology section will require being unlocked, will unlock a new section, or will be both. The normal view allows you to see this with the use of arrows and images.

 

The progression of research is not linear and many research options require multiple pre-requisite technologies. These are shown below on the individual research options.
