Hyperspace Technology

Connects the late-game technology chain.

What it does

Establishes hyperspace physics required by advanced drives, orbital industry and capital projects.

Hyperspace Technology has little standalone value, but it is a decisive gate. Raise it when advanced propulsion, multi-lab research or orbital production is the objective.

What it enables

Hyperspace Drive, Orbital Shipyard, Intergalactic Research Network and late fleet construction.

🌀 Prerequisite for Battleships and Hyperspace Drive.

Research time depends on the Research Laboratory level, the Intergalactic Research Network and the universe speed.

Cost per level

Each level multiplies the previous cost by ×2, so each further level gets steadily more expensive the further you push it.
