'''Research''' is the process of improving an [[Blueprint|Original | '''Research''' is the process of improving an [[Blueprint|Blueprint Original (BPO)]]. Two types of research are performed: ''Material Efficiency'' research and ''Time Efficiency'' research, also known as ME and TE. Material Efficiency research decrease the amount of materials required for the production of the blueprint, whilst Time Efficiency research decrease the production time of the item produced. | ||
Research may also involve blueprint copying, which produces Blueprint Copies (BPC). As the blueprint is researched and copied, the ME and TE levels of the original blueprint will be transferred onto the blueprint copy. | Research may also involve blueprint copying, which produces Blueprint Copies (BPC).
