Research (Mechanic)

Researching is an important mechanics in Astroneer, as the player is required to unlock new schematic in order to make progress. Repeated researches performed upon researched Artifacts will result in a resource instead of new schematics. To compensate this, if the player has no new schematic to unlock, then the research artifact will not be expended so the player may continue their research progress after an update.
