Multi Floor R&D

Hi,

First of all, thanks for developing this game further. The Original game was having a great concept, with the further development it even goes to greater.

I would like to make a suggestion if possible regarding the R&D. Would it be possible to make the R&D building to become multi floor like the retail store? Say 1 R&D building has 10-15 floors, it will save a lot on the required space to build. All of this time, I found it quite a waste on land if I want to build R&D building for each product. At least 10% of the map size will be consumed by the R&D building if I intend to do R&D for each product. Not to count the time that will be consumed to build each building. It's a matter of few seconds though but sometimes could be iritating especially when building over 100 buildings for over 100 products.

I hope this idea make sense.

Always in favor of being able to consolidate to fewer buildings to check on

The navigation of information may become more difficulty if there are too many R&D projects in a single R&D center.

Let's say that you intend to change a R&D project, you will first have to locate the R&D project by checking through the floors, which may appear to be a tedious process to some users.

Well, to be fair, there are progression bar listed in the "product images" in the middle section. And I don't think once the R&D center has established with all the links, players would change the layout much. Perhaps a double click on each of the research project "image" will take you to that floor might be enough to check current R&D progress?

Maybe we need some closed Beta to test a lot of experimental idea that may or may not pen out.

I like this. That seems like a good way to navigate.

Plus I don't think its any less tedious to go through multiple firms looking for a project. I end up never making major changes to my R&D because it takes too much time to go looking for where I set up the project. I think many users would prefer clicking through firms at one location looking for a project over multiple.
