Research is a fundamental part of The Last Starship. This gives players the ability to craft objects in mainly Assembly Tables with blueprints being researched. It also may give buffs to certain objects.

Points

There are two types of points, Research Points (RP) and Computation Points (CP). Research Points are accumulated through the Science Station whereas Computation Points are generated by Supercomputers.

Branches

Fluid Logistics

Researches blueprints for Tanks.

  • Level 1: Unlocks schematic for Small Tank (Cost 1 RP)
  • Level 2: Unlocks schematic for Medium Tank (Cost 1 RP)
  • Level 3: Unlocks schematic for Huge Tank (Cost 2 RP)

Energy Transmission

Required for Phase 3 onwards of the Stargate Project.

Metallurgy

Increases the output of Smelters.

  • Level 1: Smelters produce 20% more output (Cost 1 RP)
  • Level 2: Smelters produce 40% more output (Cost 3 RP)

Factory Automation

Introduces Tracks and Robot Arms.

Compact Automation

Sub-branch of Factory Automation.

Smart Automation

Sub-branch of Factory Automation.
