📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Unlimited queue size means you can queue up entire tech trees without worrying about limits.
  • Auto-add prerequisites is a huge time-saver, no more manually hunting down dependencies.
  • Estimated time to completion helps you plan your play sessions better.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2021, so it may not be compatible with the latest game versions.
  • As a GUI mod, it might conflict with other UI overhaul mods.
  • No explicit mention of compatibility with modded tech trees, so custom techs might not display correctly.
🎯 Is This For You?
This is for players who hate the vanilla research queue's limitations and want more control. It's perfect for long playthroughs with complex tech trees, and for those who like to plan ahead. If you're a casual player who rarely queues more than a few techs, you might not need it.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use the filter/search to quickly find techs by name, especially when you have many mods installed.
  • Pause the queue when you want to focus on building up your economy before starting the next research.
  • Take advantage of the estimated time to completion to decide whether to rush a tech or build more labs first.
