QoL changes for Research screen.

I know there are other more important things to be working on at this moment (all the crashes), but I wanted to suggest a couple QoL changes on the Research screen.

First, the list of techs in the list to be researched could really, really use a scroll bar.

Second, the ability to drag and drop a tech either from the Research tree or the Research list to a specified position.

Thanks.

I agree wholeheartedly. The scroll bar is sorely needed.

Yes to both, plus research cost should only be deducted at the start of the project.

Actually does anybody know which stock is used for this cost ?

A "send to top of queue" button would be nice too

I hate to suggest this, but it would be nice to also have a list view of available techs, with the option of sorting by cheapest. Just to see what the options are within a reasonable time frame.

Uh, I fear I wrote this also in another Research Screen Thread, but who knows when the other will be read and implemented, so:
Show us please the cash we have on hand.

This is actually in the game, although not were I would place it :

if a research subject is allready active and you mouse over it to activate crash research.
Then and only then you can see below the status percentage :

Bananabobazer
+666% research speed for this project
3 days to research
1% complete (right click to cancel )
( click to initiate crash program for 1.000.000 credits from cash on hand of 12 credits )


Like I said in another thread : DW2 is a picture search game, which rewards you with ingame functions

I would like it if the display of the research topics would look like this :

Bashing Rocks together
+5% Research Speed
5 days to research
Initiation Cost
500 credits ( OF 1.222.333 credits )
50 ( OF 1000 ) Steel / 20 ( OF 80 ) Gumdrops



And please, pretty please make it so, that the tooltip for research does not appear when I mouse over the arrows to change the position in the research queue.
