I've gotten pretty far in the game and have a laboratory all set up, but my minions will not go around the base researching objects and advancing my tech. Everything in the base is accessible and I have all the components but they just wont start researching.


Can anyone help?

1. How far are you into the game?
2. Were you able to research anything at all when you built the lab?
3. What type of scientists are you using?
4. How many research buildings do you have in the lab?

I ask because a lot of research is locked for a good amount of time, and even then it does take a while before you a "research" the object.

I just got to the second island, and by that time it started to work a little in till the game crashed and I haven't thought about since. But thank you for help.
