The Triton Codex

Science and Technology

Each science facility you build at your stars contributes one point of research towards your chosen technology each hour. Build more science facilities at your stars to develop new tech faster.

You should coordinate with your allies and trade your technical discoveries.

View your progress and change your research topic on the Technology Inspector. Keyboard Shortcut T

There are a number technologies you can research. Not all technologies will be available in every game, and in user created games players will be able to adjust how much influence a tech has on a game.

To choose a technology to research, simply select it in the drop down menu. You can also choose a technology to switch to once the current topic is complete.

You can only research one topic at once

Research points are only distributed to technologies at the end of the whole next hour on the production clock.

If you receive a technical advance from an ally, any research points you have already invested in that tech are lost.

Below is a list of all technologies with their default settings.

Weapons

Ships deal X damage each round of combat where X is weapons tech level.

Weapons determine how much damage you deal and your effectiveness in combat.

Banking

On production, earn an additional X*$75 where X is banking tech level.

Banking allows you to make money, regardless of the infrastructure on your stars.

Manufacturing

A star produces Y*(X+5) ships every 24 ticks where X is your manufacturing tech level and Y is the amount of industry at a star.

Ships are the strength of your army. The faster they are produced, the stronger you will be.

Terraforming

All your stars natural resources are improved to (X*5)+Y where X terraforming level tech and Y is the stars natural state.

Increasing the natural resources of stars reduces the cost of building infrastructure. This means you can afford to build more, or use you cash elsewhere.

Hyperspace

Carriers may make hyperspace jumps up to X+3 light years where X is hyperspace tech level.

Making fewer jumps means your carriers can reach their destination faster.

Experimentation

On production, your scientists will conduct experiments that will unlock X*72 points of research in a random technology where X is your experimentation tech level.

A great way to boost your over all tech advancement without focusing on a single tech.

Scanning

Stars may scan the infrastructure and strength of enemy fleets and stars up to X+2 light years where X is scanning tech level.

Being able to see your enemy infrastructure and ship movements is vital.
