getting science takes a long time, and wealthy colonies would be willing to pay a high price to buy some.
that's why it's not allowed to send research
Its me Lego.
Research can be written down or collected in some form and therefore it would be only logical to make research tradeable.
Nope I acutely had a charter ask me to gift it once lol .
But again Nop ( ps buy the game use the new sandbox mode )
Every thing unlocked and no cost to build .
May be just the thing the game needs to draw in the lazy kids .
Lol I have alest 4 colony's with every thing unlocked and having trillions resources are no problem so after a point the game becomes a sandbox anyway .
being able to gift 100 million at a shot even starting a new map I can have every thing unlocked in 24 hours .
so already easy enough .
This latest map I just made has almost every thing unlocked and built and by tomorrow it will 5 days with NO gifts .
