They need to fix that on their end. We didn't do anything.

Mod currently not working for me either. Shows 2 research buttons as of about a week ago. One just showing the in game research tab and then an unclickable semi random research button. Hopefully fixed soon as this mod is essential for me :)

Since https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3236847079 (Better Research Tabs) updated to 1.6, the Semi-Random Research button does no longer appear and the restrictions don't take effect. Which is weird, as before their update to 1.6 it worked fine. Not sure what's the problem, so reported at both mods.

Can you change die Options mid-savegame? I'm constantly getting research projects to choose which exceed my tech-level, thus making it a massive drag to research anything.

@Rɨs holy shit, I was losing my mind on why the hell it was bugged. Thanks man!

Any chance of adding in an option to force random research until a high tech bench is built? So as a tribal start i get random research options based on the settings, then once I finally research and build a high tech bench I can use the norma research tree to pick and choose. I know I can just do it manually, but a check box to handle that automatically would feel nice. Either way, love the mod!

I tried Rɨs suggestion and that fixed the issue. I don't even own Anomaly, it's never been active on my machine, but turning on the Support option shows research projects again.

will do in future, thanks a lot

@ChrisB I think it's probably bugged yeah. As for your faction's tech level, make sure you are starting in a medieval scenario. You can use Progression Scenarios to make that even clearer

@ferny thanks for the very quick response. i've limited literally everything to medieval i could get my grubby little hands on, factions, world, player faction etc with world tech level, but still reflects spacer etc on the research.

anything i can do to update this at all? i can just deal with it and move on if there isn't any way to update it, but just asking in the hopes there's some special thing i've overlooked :)

@ChrisB You advance your faction tech via any mod you want, I typically reccomend VFE Tribals and my own Progression: Core. World tech level displays the maximum tech of the factions in your planet, so it might say spacer due to the Empire being present.

heya,
how on earth do you update the faction/world tech level? using world tech level and updated the tech level post-gen to medieval. however, SRR is still showing faction as industrial and world as spacer. i've restarted and all that. does it require save editing?

@Rɨs Will look into this, thank you for identifying!

ok, so i spent another 2 hours on this mess and i finally figured out what was the problem at least in my case.

For some reason Experimental Anomaly Support being off started to cause the issue. It is importnat to note that at no point Anomaly was active on my instance. Enabling it fixed the problem. Even when running only SRR and Harmony without Anomaly, option still was required for research options to be added. It is also important to note that replecation of issue requires to restart the game after turning the Experimental Anomaly Support off

Now the question is: was it supposed to affect games that do not run Anomaly? Not that i mind keeping the setting on, it's just weird x3

@mann can outsmart bullet Nope, there's not a hint of sarcasm in anything I'm saying. I'm trying to help you guys. You're projecting that onto my responses. Assuming bad intention due to my own confusion is a great way to have me not want to help you.

Loading the modlist from the save hasn't worked either.

Regardless as to whether it works or not, I've decided to go back to the unforked version as ferny's sarcastic responses don't give me any faith in them listening to the community regarding future bugs.

Good luck to all the rest of you.

I fixed it!
I unloaded all mods, restarted, then went to load the game and hit load modlist from save, restarted, then it worked again :)

also having this issue :(
no research options at all

Weird, I don't have this issue and my community of 8000 have never once said a peep about it. Must be something weird.

I once again tried to test it out. New colony, starting tech level industrial, World Tech Level set to unlimited, all settings regarding research availability are turned off. No research options added from the start. I tried it couple times with different configurations, but results are same.

I also noticed that Reroll button not only doesn't fix the issue, i think it just doesn't function. Settings are set to reroll available only once, press the button, no options apppear, but also button does not become inactive.

I checked our modslists and the only mods we all had in common were:

* Harmony
* Royalty
* Ideology
* Biotech
* Character Editor
* XML Extensions

(I couldn't find a link to the issue I was thinking of in the other comment, it could have been with a different mod)

I am using the Tech Advancing mod, and it appears it is detecting my tech level (Industrial) correctly, with the projects in it being available:

Tech Advancing settings: page 1 [files.catbox.moe], page 2 [files.catbox.moe], page 3 [files.catbox.moe]

Disabling this mod's tech level options has not fixed the issue. (Restrict to faction tech level, Allow one higher tech project)

I think I vaguely remember the original Semi Random Research having an issue similar to this one, I'll try and link to it if I find it.

I would directly assume this is due to your world tech level, or you not advancing your faction's tech with your option to restrict to faction tech level

@ferny
I am also having this issue. If you have any suggested settings, I would be willing to try them.

Current settings [files.catbox.moe]

Edit: resent comment to fix link

@ Aristarchus of Samos Your issue is most likely your mod settings. I've never heard of this outside of that.

Also having the issue where nothing is populated in the research list. I added some mods before this occurred but nothing that adds research and certainly no research-specific mods. No errors in the log.

I also have the ?.?.? version number in my mod settings.

There seems to be a slight incompatibility between this mod and others that change the research tree menu: I use Dubs Mint Menus alongside this, however when I click on the Research Tree button, it forces the vanilla menu. Is there any other way to access the modded menu or any sort of compatibility that could be accounted for on that?

hi there. I think recent update broke something. Had an existing game with this mod, ran as intended. Abandoned it for couple weeks and came back today

Once current project is finished, no new research options are offered. Reroll button does not work. I tried disabling and enabling some limiting settings, nothing changed

Also tried new test game. No research options were offered from the start

also in mod settings menu version number is ?.?.?, duno if it's important. I tried compleatly reinstalling mod, no effect

love this mod! is there the possibility of adding a "auto select" button for continuous research?

Hello @ferny, for some reason, I can't click the Main Research tab when there's a queue Anomaly research. But I can alternately view Basic and Advanced Dark Research, not the main one

How this will pair with research data(+theory), research reinvented(+SS), organized research tab?

v6 - anomalies expected/any other anomaly mod support, advanced anomaly research alongside basic support, better performance (Thanks Joof!)

@KeiChan0215 Reverted the update to fix

Also I have Dark and Advance Dark Research on my tab, duplicating all researches in each column

So I don't have anomaly and whenever the current research reaches 89%, my researchers stops researching and I need to press research again in order for them to continue.

v4 - anomalies expected/any other anomaly mod support, advanced anomaly research alongside basic support, better performance (Thanks Joof!)

@ed asner and others playing anomaly:

I ended up fixing this issue because I play with anomalies extended. I also fixed anomaly basic / advanced support and improved the performance.

Ferny seems pretty busy, but I sent it over to him to update when he can.

In the meantime, you can install my fork from github via rimsort.
https://github.com/Jeffrharr/Semi-Random-Research-Progression-Fork/tree/main

Seems like mods that add their own Anomaly research don't play well with the Anomaly integration sadly. Wondering if it's just related to them being on a separate tab or what, but the Integrated Implants Anomaly content just doesn't show up at all.

@ferny Is there any way to blacklist certain research for a save? Sometimes I don't intend to use anything in some mod researches and it would be nice to make it so it doesn't show up in the research list as I see them.

Thanks for the amazing mod. I love you

@pete parsons ate my kid That feature is from Vanilla Factions Expanded - Tribals. The configuration of that is in Progression: Core. Look into Tribals for how their advancement works.

How do you "progress" to the next tier once you've gotten all the research?

To clarify: I came to the coments to find out about the automatic research, I got the mod because it was neat and I hate choice paralysis lol.

Came here because i was told this mod had a "select research automatically" button but I'm probably blind. was/is this not a thing or did it not carry over from a previous version.

@Anonimi Angels There is no way, but i'm very okay with that. Research should be something you pause and pick, any other type of picking of research is likely to result in degenerative play.

Is there a way to make it stop pausing the game and opening the research tab?

@Macbuk I really don't think so. I know plenty of people who use both of these mods.

Incompatible with Performance Optimizer

Second post to say, hell yeah to the mod author for continuing this and the new animations are beautiful.
