Hey guys!

I know I am a bit late with this thread, but still might be helpful for some players and especially newer ones

So let's talk a bit about the "new" feature Group Technology

So firstly you will want to upgrade it a bit in your Group Upgrade tab

What upgrade does is allow you reach higher limit of the Group Technology (more R&D Chips)

So R&D chip is just a waiting game, you get it over time, on average something like 1 chip per day

In this first tab you are acquiring the bonuses you could use

The bonuses are pretty much permanent so you don't have to worry about them disappearing (but they last 1 week because each week you can change what you want to use for the week because the limit is using 9 of them)

So with 1 R&D Chip you can do 1 upgrade from the list, and there are A LOT of upgrades and you have to do them from start, so you can't skip to the end

So for these higher ones you have such requirements as "complete * researches"

This 2nd tab is where it just shows what the current week bonuses you are using, and you can't touch that

Now the 3rd tab is what's important, this is where you put which bonuses you want to use for the next week

You can have max of 2x phase 3 bonuses (best ones obviously)

3x of phase 2 ones

4x of phase 3 ones

At first you'll barely have any slots, you need to unlock them thru using the R&D chips over time to reach the "unlock next phase" bonuses

So that's pretty much all about this feature, it's quite simple actually and has some decent bonuses

hope it helps!
