I tried to start playing probably 10 times, and every time it was something or the other IA> the study appeared earlier and sometimes later. Here is the research tree - study it and you will understand everything :) RSCH structure (4 bytes): +0(BYTE) Nsbj - what item needs to be found/produced for start of this study (0 - none) +1(BYTE) Nrs - how many other studies need to be completed to start this research (0 - not at all) +2(WORD) link to the list of these studies, consisting of Nrs bytes (#0000 - list is empty) If all 4 bytes are zero - research has already been completed at the start of the game or everything is ready to perform research at the beginning of the game... === Cut === ;SEQUENCE of research RSCH DEFW 0.0 ;1st study DEFW 0.0 ;2-e DEFW #302,_R2 ;3-e DEFW #103,_R3 ;and so on...

Using the research tree it is much easier to play - you can see what you need do to get the research you need.. Unfortunately, the appearance of aliens with the necessary specialties (to capture them in captivity) - is largely determined by fortune.. Warm greetings, Slava!
