Innovation Center

What is the Innovation Center?

It is the section where the Production Quantity, Sales Amount, and Max Price of the products you research up to 100 quality in R&D are developed. The Innovation Center takes 10 days to build and requires 250 Million. Additionally, a Level 3 R&D Center is required to build the Innovation Center.

Innovation Center Level

The Innovation Center can be upgraded to a maximum of “Level 10.” Each level increase boosts “Research Speed.” Upon reaching Level 10, you gain a “+40% Research Speed” bonus.

To conduct your research, you essentially need three things: Game Currency, Metal, and Timber. The required amounts for each item vary. You can earn these requirements through Contracts, Side Jobs, and the Restaurant section. The amounts of Metal and Wood you earn increase or decrease depending on distance and time.
