If you can't spare someone to full-time research at first, having a colonist who can multitask between research and a periodic duty such as animal training or hunting will let you start making progress even before your food supply is stable. Once you get more colonists, two researchers is well worth the time investment. If at least one of them has passion for research, it is possible to get Stonecutting, Complex clothing and Electricity finished well before the end of the second game year. | If you can't spare someone to full-time research at first, having a colonist who can multitask between research and a periodic duty such as animal training or hunting will let you start making progress even before your food supply is stable.

Medieval techs have a 150% research costs multiplier (x1.5), while Neolithic techs have no research penalty. This means you can access the basic technologies quickly to get your colony on its feet. |

* Stonecutting will let you build a [[stonecutter's table]]. Stone blocks are a must for constructing strong, non-flammable walls without using up steel. They are also great for making [[small sculpture]]s, which have decent trade value even for crafters with modest skills. | * Stonecutting will let you build a [[stonecutter's table]].
