I'm fairly sure there's an Advent tech that increases research speed. See what modifier that is and try to slap it on a building, as an ability or otherwise.

well, the idea was to give the advent a structure which they can build once per planet and increases research speed by 10% or something.

(possible background: psionic connection between planets / collective consciousness speeds up research)

im aware of the possibility to increase research rate via research, but thats not what i want to do

my idea was to give the structure an ability/buff which does that, but i found no buff modifier which allowed it..

second idea was to give them a research subject which increases research speed in dependence to the number of colonized planets, but again, i found no way and i dont think this is possible.

basically, what i want to know is if its possible to increase research speed without research, not necessarily with a structure
