university (building) (class 4 ship)
the university is the home of many scholars, mathmaticians, and scientists. they have fully equipped laboratories and programs. the students research many different theories and ideas. after a "breakthrough", the military research center can expand on the idea and practicalize it, following groundwork laid by the university. you can select the research, and when the research center has completed it¸s current project, they can automatically begin the new research. (a queue, in effect.)
destroying the university gives the attacker 200 points.
attack/life: 0/1000
manpower: 173
researchtime: 1 d 12 h
buildingtime: 14 h
battle details:

I know that the admin do not care for the idea of a "queue", but I thought that perhaps they may see this invention in a different light. With this, you have to waste early, valuable research time to make it worthwhile, so that is definitely a drawback to you. Also, you risk losing it, which is another penalty for using a queue.
All statistics are negotiable, of course. The lifepoints and points gained may have to be raised so that it is not used as a blocker for your shipyard and research center. But, as a whole, I think this building is satisfactory.

Of course I think this is a good invention but I'm afraid it won't pass the admins.

Well, at least this way we are not just asking them to add the option to everyone automatically. With the university the idea becomes part of the gameplay. |

Well, we could always vote until they tell us no. Right now it is not in impossible inventions. Maybe they are thinking about it.
I have a full time job, overtime, and three kids and a wife to deal with. This invention would be very beneficial to me, and I'm sure plenty of others, too. If you dont want to use this invention, you can spend the research and build time doing something more valuable to you. There is an element of balance to it. |

its a good id but i dont think that it reqeures mp a university isnt a place where your marines go a university is an place where studends come and they dont use mp it is a public place not for your soldiers. |

Soldiers? Soldiers don't research, but they fight. Anyway it is called manpower not soldierspower or marinespower.

if it's going to cost mp, it should be equal to the points you'll earn by destroying one |

I did not mean for it to have mp. That must have been added by the engine without me noticing.
I want it to be put in place like your other buildings, and it becomes a permanent (unless destroyed) structure, using no mp.

Yes, yes, I like this very much.
It allows you to be more organized when doing your research, but it isn't free. Maybe I'm not organized enough, but after I finish researching something that took 3 days, I often forget what I wanted to research next.
This well help with my forgetfulness, and it will not stop me from being active at the same time.
Good invention! |

A University for your forget problems is an expensive solution. Maybe you could open notepad and make a list and stored it on your desktop.

Is the University a ship or a building. A ship use up your assigned MP. A building do not. |

i like the idea. it could save some time while researching. if a research ends in the middle of the night while you're sleeping, it'll save you a couple of hours.
@limsky:
it's a building. it won't use mp
