РнД (не путайте с РД) состоит из ученых эксперементирующих с разными обьектами находящимися на станции путем запихивания их в Destructive Analyzer, который уничтожает обьект исследуя его методом реверс-инжениринга. Server Computer позволит вам использовать полученные технологии из уничтоженных обьектов для постройки усовершенствованных версий оригинального предмета и даже получить новые инструменты или лазерные пушки!
По сути, это значит что ученому в современном мире совершенно не нужно разбираться с чем он работает, он просто плавит вещи и играется с полученными в результате игрушками. Разве это не замечательная жизнь?
Заметьте что в этой гайде приведены только самые распространенные вещи создающиеся с помощью технологий. В РнД можно делать еще много, много всякого.
Декнструкция происходить с помощью Destructive Analyzer:
Синхронизируйте Destructive Analyzer с research computer если он не синхронизирован.
Вставьте предмет.
Используйте консоль.
Консоль покажет вам технологический уровень предмета. Если уровень технологии предмета соответствует или выше вашему уровню технологии, это повысит уровень технологии на 1. Предмет можно извлечь если вы передумали из Destructive Analyzer.
Надежность
Есть отвратительная вещь которая не позволит вам исследовать предмет который вы построили. Большинство предметов имеют надежность 100, не некоторые могут иметь меньше. Если надежность слишком низкая, вы не получите технологии при разборке предмета. Да и предмет скорее всего не будет работать. Вы можете улучшить Destructive Analyzer и снизить необходимый уровень надежности требуемый для получения технологии: он может работать с надежностью предмета 99 - 3 * rating, где rating сумма уровней запчастей.
К примеру, DA с Pico Manipulator (level 3), High-Power Micro-Laser (level 2) и Advanced Scanning Module (level 2) может исследовать предметы с надежностью 78: 99 - 3 * (3 + 2 + 2) = 78
Tech categories
Materials Research
Development of new and improved materials.
Important category. Used very commonly. The higher is the level, less material is used in mech fabricators. Can be upgraded to level 8.
Engineering Research
Development of new and improved engineering techniques.
Not used commonly, but important. Can be upgraded to 6. All items are unlocked at 4, some rarely used boards require 5.
Plasma Research
Research into the mysterious substance colloqually known as plasma.
Not very useful. Can be upgraded to 4, but it's pointless. Level 3 is needed for a plasma cutter. Freezer/Heater, PACMAN and chem dispenser boards also require level 3.
Power Manipulation Technology
The various technologies behind the storage and generation of electicity.
Needed for power cells, capacitors and some lasers. Goes up to 7, but you'll be fine with 5, as no new items are unlocked beyond.
'Blue-space' Research
Research into the sub-reality known as "blue-space".
It's quite isolated, but unlocks bluespace beakers at 2 and bags of holding at 4. Chemists would want those beakers, and everyone wants a bag.
Biological Technology
Research into the deeper mysteries of life and organic substances.
Overall, not very useful, though level 3 unlocks boards for medical equipment. Level 3 also unlocks floral somatoray, which is very useful for botanists.
Combat Systems Research
The development of offensive and defensive systems.
As the name suggests, unlocks various weapons, as well as security hud at level 2 and large grenade cases at level 3. You also need level 2 for gygax and durand construction.
Electromagnetic Spectrum Research
Research into the electromagnetic spectrum. No clue how they actually work, though.
Used in micro-lasers, scanning modules and various items. Useful up to 5.
Data Theory Research
The development of new computer and artificial intelligence and data storage systems.
Used for all but one circut boards. Intelicard requires 4, some items require 2. Requirements for boards go up to 4, except Messaging Monitor Console board that requires 5.
Illegal Technologies Research
The study of technologies that violate Nanotrassen regulations.
Level 2 is needed for T.Y.R.A.N.T. AI module. Level 3 is needed for cyborg illegal equipment module upgrades. That's it.

Construction
See here how to build machines out of the components you discover.
This is where advanced technology you discovered by increasing tech trees will be made. Nothing exciting at first can be built, but you will get increasingly more fun devices as tech trees increase. Some high tech items may malfuction every once in a while, but putting them back in the Analyzer will allow you to see what went wrong and fix the problem, creating a more efficient device. You will unlock items for the Exosuit Fabricator as well.
Upgrading Machines
All machines are composed of components. There are better versions of many components, attained through research. These instructions only show you how to construct the very basic form of e.g. Exosuit Fabricator. But if you build an Exosuit Fabricator with the most complicated versions of the components instead of the regular ones, you'll get different advantages:
Better Matter bin makes you have more storage space.
Better Manipulator improves build speed.
Better Laser improves materials efficiency.
Bigger Beaker increases the reagent storage size.
Once you unlock advanced components, people around the station will probably want you to upgrade the machinery. The process is simple.
Screwdriver on the machine.
Crowbar on the machine.
Take the board and re-insert it into machine.
Insert parts you want to use.
Screwdriver.
Alternately, you can use RPED (Rapid Part Exchange Device):
Load RPED with parts.
Screwdriver on the machine.
Click on it with RPED.
Screwdriver again.
Protolathe
The Protolathe requires materials such as metal, glass and mineable minerals, each sheet gives 3750 units when inserted into a Protolathe. It allows you to build objects such as stock parts, mining equipment, power cells and many more. Weaponry can also be built but will require a firing pin from the armory or ordered from cargo if you wish to use it for combat.
Floral Somatoray additionally requires 20 Radium
