Research and Development

Research and Development (commonly called R&D or RnD) is the job of the scientists. The department typically lies behind purple and grey doors. In the department typically exists a set of Lathe and R&D machines. Often you will see lockers with lab equipment in them.

Point Generation

Research points can be acquired through a few different sources. Most commonly, points are gained passively from a Research Point Source, which produces a constant low stream of points to the selected server. Points can also be acquired through research disks, which can be found in maintenance, salvaged from space, or given as a result of identifying a disease.

The most profitable form of point generation is Xenoarcheology, which is the process of analyzing and activating different randomly generated artifacts, the process of which makes up a majority of the activities of the science team.

Equipment

R&D Computer

The R&D computer at the start of the Round with no technologies researched.

In the R&D computer new technologies can be unlocked via points. To research a technology, click on it if it's in the Unlockable technologies column. Technologies in the Future technologies are locked behind others, requiring you to research a previous technology (in the Unlockable technologies column). Technologies in the Unlocked technologies section have already been researched.

Autolathe

The Autolathe doesn't require any research but only makes engineering and botanical tools as well as low-voltage cables. Requires plastic, steel and glass to use.

Example recipes:

Image Name Description Required Items Value
Airlock Painter 300 steel, 100 plastic
Crowbar A tool that is needed to pry open unpowered doors. 200 steel 40
Gas Analyzer 800 steel, 300 glass
Global Positioning System A hand-held device used to see what the GPS coordinates ware of your position in the map. 800 steel, 300 glass
LV cable coil A piece of wire that can be used to connect powerered objects to an APC. Refer to Power 100 steel
Multitool A tool that can be used for Hacking 200 steel, 200 plastic
Pickaxe A tool that can be used by Salvage for mining ore 200 steel, 100 wood
Screwdriver A tool that is needed to open/close panels of devices such as doors. It is also needed when building some items. 200 steel, 50 plastic
T-Ray Scanner A tool that shows underground wires and pipes. 800 steel, 300 glass
Utility Belt A belt that stores Engineering tools 100 cloth, 50 steel
Welding Tool A tool that enables objects to be welded open/closed. Welded items must need a Welding Tool to be unwelded. It is also needed when building some items. 400 steel
Wirecutter A tool that enables you to cut wires of powered devices such as doors and vending machines. Refer to Hacking. You may also need to cut wires of some objects as part of their deconstruction process. 200 steel, 50 plastic
Wrench A tool that enables you to anchor / unanchored objects. Anchored objects cannot be moved until unanchored. Unanchored objects are unpowered. 200 steel 40

Protolathe

The Protolathe is a machine capable of printing most of what you've researched. It can make things such from beakers or ammo. Requires steel, glass and sometimes plastic to use.

Note that for some machines (such as the Cloner), higher quality parts can be used to improve the quality of the machine. For example low quality components for a Cloner results in a 50% chance of failure to clone. A low-capacity power cell has less charge than a high-capacity power cell.

A lot of the parts available in the Protolathe are used to craft something. Use the Craft hotkey to open the Craft dialog. By default this should be 'G'.

Plan of action

Your main priority at the start of the round is to use the RD computer to research medical machinary & basic parts manufacture , and then everything else. Then it's recommended that you build cloning pods for medbay , chemical dispensers and ChemMasters for chemistry or just hoard them and hand out tricord foam bombs to clowns.

Troubleshooting

"I can't get any points/I can't print anything"

The likely cause is that the RD Computer/Protolathe isn't synced up with the RD server.

To fix this in the RD Computer/Protolathe click Server list, click on ID x || RDSERVER and then exist the window. Now when you click Sync it should (hopefully) work.
