MAM

In Patch 0.3, the M.A.M. has been redesigned and became its own separate building. Unlike before, research is now separated into separate research trees. It is also no longer tied to the HUB in any way.

Research is a key element in Satisfactory, as it unlocks new technologies and recipes for the engineer. It can be conducted at the M.A.M. (which is unlocked in the Tier 1 milestone "Field Research"). It If the engineer picks up a researchable item, a narration from ADA will inform the player to research it. It is advised to check the M.A.M. upon discovering something new to see if that item can be researched.

Research is conducted in a similar manner to HUB Milestones, except that instead of being divided into tiers, it is divided into research trees. Individual unlocks and are done by fulfilling the cost of research elements.

Alternate Recipes
Researching a is used to unlock Alternate Recipes. The player can choose one of 3 randomly chosen recipes based on current Project Assembly progress (the two unchosen recipes will appear on the next scan, with the chosen one re-rolled).

If all Alternate Recipes have been unlocked, the M.A.M. will return the Hard Drive after its research concludes.

Alien Organisms
Name before unlocked: Alien Organisms

Description before unlocked: ''Sizable extraterrestrial lifeforms have been observed to inhabit your designated Project Assembly area. R&D would like to note that any legally obtained samples might proof useful.''

Description after unlocked: Additional research shows promise that samples might be used to produce tools to increase the safety of the pioneer.



Caterium
Name before unlocked: Unknown Metal

Description before unlocked: ''While scanning the planet for the necessary resources, gold could not be located among them. However, an unknown metal with similar properties was discovered. R&D is requesting field research to acquire samples and determine possible applications.''

Description after unlocked: ''The new metal, dubbed Caterium, does indeed appear to have properties similar to gold. Its characteristics as a superconductive metal imply multiple uses for producing advanced electronics.''



Flower Petals
Name before unlocked: Colored Vegetation

Description before unlocked: ''Initial planetary-scans have revealed that vegetation with coloring properties might be present on the plant. Field research is needed to acquire samples.''

Description after unlocked: The Flower Petals, found in a variety of vegetation on Massage-2(AB)b, were found to have strong coloring properties which might be used to produce dyes.



Mycelia
Name before unlocked: Mycelia

Description before unlocked: ''Initial planetary-scans indicate that fungus-like vegetation with benificial properties might be present on the planet. Field research is needed to acquire samples.''

Description after unlocked: The Mycelia found in fungus-like specimens on the planet Massage-2(AB)b was shown to have properties which might increase pioneer survival rates.



Nutrients
Name before unlocked: Nutrients

Description before unlocked: ''Due to the presence of sizable extraterrestrial lifeforms, R&D is expecting that vegetation with high nutrional values are present. Field research is needed to acquire samples.''

Description after unlocked: Additional scans of the provided DNA sample have shown three seperate specimen in the direct environment to have high nutritional, and potentially medical, properties.



Power Slugs
Name before unlocked: Strange Energy Readings

Description before unlocked: ''R&D has picked up energy readings with unknown origins all around your designated Project Assembly area. Field research has been highly requested to determine a source and potentially obtain a sample.''

Description after unlocked: This species of semi-slug seems to emit a weak potential energy from its crystalline shell which R&D thinks might be extracted to improve the efficiency of your work on Project Assembly.



Quartz
Name before unlocked: Unknown Crystalline Element

Description before unlocked: ''Initial planetary-scans indicate that an unknown crystalline mineral is present on Massage-2(AB)b. A sample is required to determine if useful applications are possible.''

Description after unlocked: ''This mineral shows purity levels akin to synthetic Quartz manufactured on earth. Thus R&D believes it maybe be used in similar fashion to produce communication and exploration technologies.''



Sulfur
Name before unlocked: Unknown Chemical Element

Description before unlocked: ''Initial planetary-scans have found an unknown, non-metallic, solid chemical element. R&D has requested field research to collect a sample and determine potential application.''

Description after unlocked: ''Data has shown this 'element' to simply be an unusual mixture of primarily sulfide and sulfate minerals from which Sulfur might be extraced. The properties of Sulfur would allow for the production of more... volatile self-defense applications.''
