level up , your research cap is based on you level.
50+50 per level.

Use your research faster. (Log in sooner) And don't be fooled into thinking you have to level up tech in full batches like so many of us thought. You can apply research points at any time to any study.

For 16 GP you can buy a data archive that will allow you to store 1000 more research points. If you don't have 16 GP, you can join some survey sites and get that much.

its not a problem with storing. I can store up to 10000 w/ research. I'm just not getting as much research as i should. I get 498 research an hour. After 10 hours, i have 3,800. And i'm not being hacked.

That's a definite problem then with your account. Direct contact the developers. They should be able to sort it and possibly even refund <some> of your research. There's a report/contact the developers at the very bottom-left of the game page.

Oh, wasnt there another thread about you had to revisit your planets for the changes to updated buildings or development increases to take effect?
Maybe related?

yeah you do.... any planet that is not peaked needs to be visited until it is peaked, or you will continue to get the value it was the last time you visited it.

That's to correctly update the research total. He's saying that the total itself isn't adding up right though, regardless if the production is up to date or not.

I thought resource caps were tied to how many planets you had colonized. If it is and you don't have the maximum amount of planets colonized for your level this could be why your max capacity is so low. Just don't colonize crappy planets to raise it though, you'll pay for it in the longer run.

No, only the Minerals and Artifacts are based on the number of planets you own. Your research cap is based on your level. You get an extra 150 research added to your cap per level, and I personally think this is way too low; you get a new planet every 4 levels, and each planet increases your caps by 500 minerals and 1000 artifacts, which works out to 125 minerals and 250 artifacts per level. I think 200 research per level would be more realistic.
My current artifact cap is double that of my research cap, and I don't even have the maximum number of planets for my currently level. It takes 24 hours to fill my Artifact cap, and 11 hours to fill my research cap.
This isn't what krikit is posting about though. He has a cap of 10,000, but it stops filling when he reaches 3,800. And at at level 75, his cap *should* actually be 11,250.

Bleh.. I knew that. Got a little brain-locked when the production thing was brought up.
