Could you explain a bit more? In what ways is yours less cheaty, aside from also doubling the collaboration loss?

On rovers contributing to research, the wiki says:
"RC Explorers also contribute 100 research points to the research generation directly once the Explorer AI (Robotics) technology has been researched. Multiple vehicles result in collaboration losses. Adding more vehicles results in diminishing returns: the 2nd adds 80 research points, the 3rd adds 60, the 4th adds 40, the 5th adds 20, the 6th adds 0, and each explorer after the 6th adds 50 research points."

This mod quote, "gives 500 research points from RC Explorer Rover", but it does not explain what it means. Is that 500 points per rover, or does it give a one-time 500 points for researching the technology?

I miss this mod so I quickly created something similar that works on Above and Below and, I feel, is a little less cheat like: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3161257384

Is there still a chance of this mod getting an update?
Or... can you grant permission for others to update this in your stead?

The last game update was over a year ago. And it looks suspiciously like the devs have abandoned the game to it's current state, so I doubt you'd have to worry about future game updates breaking mods again.

An update is needed pls!

Incompatible mod version. Could you update it please.

update pls

Hmm, it shouldnt be that high... Should only be double. It does grant extra depending on how many explorers you have though, so that may be the issue. Will look into it further.

This is working for me, but switches from a default of 400 research per day to 3600, which feels very overpowered to me.

I’d love to see a doubling / tripling version.

It should be functional. It will not work in tandem with other research mods. Please check that you have others that grand research from sponsor/ explorer disabled. Also, mods will not work with existing game files. You may need to begin a new game for them to work.

is this still functional for others? it does not appear to be working when enabled in-game.
FreeWillie4  [author] 31 Mar, 2019 @ 7:06pm 
Updated to latest version. Apologies for delay, my PC needed repairs.

update please?

Updated to reflect recent patch
FreeWillie4  [author] 21 May, 2018 @ 7:13am 
Will look into several alternates for different gameplay types
MosaPudica 3 Apr, 2018 @ 1:17am 
I agree that an alternate version would be nice. Something that only doubles or triples the sponsor / rover research amounts.

I like the rover increase but it's WAY too OP, maybe buff to 300 per? an alternative version of this mod?
Aeraxon 18 Mar, 2018 @ 12:03am

FreeWillie4  [author] 17 Mar, 2018 @ 1:36pm

Mile 17 Mar, 2018 @ 1:31pm 
I wll try again, its my only mod
FreeWillie4  [author] 17 Mar, 2018 @ 11:28am 
I have just sent the update file, keep in mind that you may have issues if you are using other mods with similar functions such as a mission sponsor mod or any other mod that may had a modified research value. I dont know the compatibility of such mods together yet.
Aeraxon 17 Mar, 2018 @ 11:23am 
dosen't work for me.
FreeWillie4  [author] 17 Mar, 2018 @ 11:15am 
Hmm, Im not having that issue with it, let me take a look and see is there is anything missing.
Mile 17 Mar, 2018 @ 5:26am 
Doesnt show the RC giving 500, also not showing Sponsor increase?
