Hi,

seems like no response from the community so i will answer this.

connecting research labs is only available in the Siirus Universe. There you can build multiple labs to get your maximum research time reduced.

But, in the Sirius is the Super Computer not available - so when you ask for this, it seems like you are not on sirius?

The Super Computer is a sub-building of the research lab, where you can accelerate your research by a value, but you have to pay Spice for that...

here is the introduction thread:

3 new features in our test universe

Hello Space Pilots!

Today we want to introduce you to a few ideas for Spaceinvasion. At the same time, we invite you to play this in a test universe for two weeks starting this Friday.

We have taken your criticism to heart over the past few months. In addition to finding new features in the forum, we now want all players (not just the consultants or team) to take part in the evaluation of features. We are looking forward to your opinions, ideas or suggestions!

Start: February 28, 2020 - 8pm (CET)

And there is more!

Test the new “Super Computer” feature in this universe. This new upgrade is an extension of the research laboratory. You can upgrade your research lab with a super computer that will help you do research faster!

Starting at research laboratory level 15 you can build the first super computer.

Further levels are only possible if you continue to expand the research lab. For example, you can build a level 6 super computer at a level 20 research laboratory. If the research laboratory is demolished , the super computer will become useless.

But what can these super computers do?

This is a huge network of computing capacity for your research laboratories. That sounds great, but this technology wants to be operated first.

Each of these computers needs 100,000 Spice to reduce your active research by 15 minutes. In the test speed universe, the calculations always takes 1 hour (we had thought of normal speed at 12 hours, i.e. 2 times a day). Since they are on a network, more super computers can help you save time. The operating costs will of course also increase!

A sample calculation for normal-speed Unviersen according to our ideas:

You have 12 planets with research laboratories at level 20 and a super computer level 5. Your total computing power is 12 * 5, so 60 units.

On the research page you can now activate up to 60 * 15 = 900min (15 hours) of research time reduction for a spice amount of 6 million spice.
