The number of research points gained per tick is calculated with the following equation:

0.00825 × Pawn Research Speed × Building Research Speed Factor × Difficulty Factor

Where:

  • 0.00825 points/tick is the base research factor.[Note]
  • Pawn Research Speed is the research speed stat from the researcher. This depends on other factors, like health capacities and global work speed.
  • Building Research Speed Factor is the multiplier from the research station. This depends on other factors, like whether the building is outdoors, the temperature, the cleanliness of the room, and if any facilities are connected. The following are the base factors:
  • Difficulty Factor is the multiplier from the chosen difficulty settings. The factors for the default difficulties are:
    • Peaceful and Community Builder (Easy) - x1.2
    • Adventure Story (Normal) and Strive to Survive (Rough) - x1
    • Blood and Dust (Hard) - x0.95
    • Losing is Fun (Extreme) - x0.9
