Description
Mega-Engineering Technology enables the construction of massive structures that push the boundaries of engineering and material science.
Benefits
Construction output Empire-wide+8.4%
Research output Empire-wide+3.6%
Strategy notes
Mega-Engineering develops the Construction discipline within Industrial Megastructure Empire. Concentrate minerals, automation, and orbital capacity into unmatched construction throughput and system-scale works. Its immediate value is +70% Production; +30% Research; Planet Destroyer. The principal counterpressure is that its fixed yards, long supply chains, and visible projects are vulnerable to blockade and sabotage. This milestone deliberately joins completed material, industrial, or colony infrastructure research.
Player hints
This is a specialization milestone. Reaching it reveals stronger combinations, but broad tier-three investment will slow every capstone. Favor this technology when its Construction benefits reinforce your current economy, fleets, or frontier. Pause the branch if its expected RP per tick is too diluted or its resource costs would stall higher-priority projects. Every Construction prerequisite must be completed before research can begin.
