Research overflow breaks the game

[RyokuHasu]

If you let your research go for a really long time without using it it seems to break the game.
At one point my mega structures were saying they couldn't be built without society research.

Edit: Now my other 2 Research also overflowed and here's an example of it bugging out Megastructures, as soon as you start new tech for all overflowed research you can make mega structures again, but it will take years before the techs are learned.

Hey, I got something similar too once, I couldn't build an outpost because I didn't have enough Society research.

...it was in early game so I absolutely wasn't overflowing however, so maybe there's some other arcane bug that affected both of our games.

If yours happened early game then it might not be the same, mine only happened extremely late game after letting thousands in research add up every month for decades. All cause i was getting annoyed at research notifications every 10 seconds.

I didn't even have a research megastructure, it was all from my single tech world in an extremely tall playstyle, those labs really get insane when you stack them on most of the building slots.

You should really register your game and make a post about this in the bug report subsection including a copy of your save file. They probably won't be able to find a fix before the winter vacation break, but it should be quite high on their priority list when they get back.

Ah thanks, new here so i didn't know that was a thing. I'll see what i can do about that.

I had a similar problem , but it usualy fixed itswlf when you actualy had the alloys to build .

Fun part its that the research point need to build were never enought
