when one of your other production types (mining or artifact) take longer to cap than your research

how did i even miss that? well.. there's obviously no way he can have 10001 planets at all.. top player by rank is FRAIL at rank 1790... and he can only own 450 planets right now (assuming he used all his drannik colony ships)

That's probably a good amount at which to stop. I had a few artifact planets that were pretty good for research that I used for research for a long time, so I had a little over 11000 I think, and then once I finished the main research I wanted I switched those to artifact and dropped down to about 9000 research. That has increased a lot just from drops and stuff, but it seems like it worked for not picking up more research planets.

( Int(1790/4) )+1)+3 = 447+1+3 =)
