Dear Annoholics,

in my current game I've build the research institute with already 10 student houses. So my research limit is 1000/1000 research. To receive more research points and increase this limit I have to built more houses.
But to get this permission the cost is 2000 research. As my limit is 1000 I can not go on..

Did anyone of you facte the same issue?

Thank you for your ideas

Hello!

The trick is to increase the happiness of the student houses you already have, thus increasing their population and your research points.

Try selecting the houses and you should be able to see what they require.

I hope that helps!

Never the less my limit is 1000 research points max.. so I can't research more houses ;-(

Hey thanks for getting back to me.

I spoke to the Anno team for you, and they were able to expand my knowledge!

There are up to 3 ways to increase the research point limit -

1. Bring in new scholars and make them happy (you appear to have done this already)
2. Bring in more Elders into Enbesa. This can take more time, however it requires less resources.
3 (if you're playing through the storyline). The research points are hard locked at different stages through the game. As you keep progressing through the story, the limit will be heightened.

Hopefully this offers more than my previous answer let me know how it goes!
