Where the shipyards at?

[SmaugTheDragon]

I remember aimlessly clicking trough the techs yesterday and stumbling over a tech that lets you build Shipyards, I have no luck when trying to find it again. Anyone know under what tech shipyard construction is? Or was it all just a dream.

Heavy hulls, then docking fields, then shipyards.

One shortcut to finding a tech you're looking for is by using the field categories; clicking on the category icons (or any category name in the description) will show you a list of all techs in that category. For example, if you're looking for a hull type, click on the category icon to the left of a construction tech name (wrench icon), or click on the tech itself and then click the "Construction" hyperlink at the top of the description, and you'll get a list of all Construction field techs, followed by a list of all the other fields.

Are Yoral unable to research docking fields? I have Heavy Hulls but it only leads to Heavy Drivers, Heavy Lasers and Fleet Logistics?
Looking at all the Construction techs (I assume it should be construction?) there is no "Shipyards" listed anywhere. (also: Orthin have multiple visual variations of their colony ship, that's a nice touch)

Go to "categories" list, find what you want, click on it and than "Queue Research" - it'll queue everything needed.
Update: if something isn't there - it might be a bug.

No, he is correct. Where it should be in the trees is a ??? tech. It would be linked to nanocomputers.

I've corrected my post after reading your error report.

Sven took out docking fields (which is an empty tech for the Yoral), which broke Shipyards. He's fixing it.

That clears it up.
