What is this?
This mod is a long-term community project aiming to add more research projects. The intention is to make researching certain technologies feel more intentional. The more times a player asks for something and the game gives it to them, the less overwhelmed they feel when they are directly asking for the content they are given. This is one of the practical solutions I have to the bloat hypothesis.
Should I use this mod?
Only subscribe to this mod if you agree with these ideas long term. You may not be the target audience.
[list]
[*] The more direct cause-and-effect the player has when researching something, then obtaining it, the better.
[*] The player should always feel like they are intending to research something before acquiring it
[*] Certain unlocks should be made more monumental, being given their own projects. Like accessing the comms console.
[*] Rimworld, as a game should last longer.

Best paired with
[list]
[*] [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3505290557]Semi Random Research: Progression Fork[/url], for long term style research. There was also zero effort put into placing these new projects on the research tree's x-y coordinates so it practically requires a research mod to feel good with.
