How many technologies are in Stellaris 4.5.2?

679 in the game files: 168 physics, 312 society, 199 engineering, of which 228 are rare and 21 repeatable.

How does research work in Stellaris?

Each research area (physics, society, engineering) offers 3 technologies at a time, drawn at random by weight from those whose prerequisites you have. A new tier opens after 6 technologies of the tier before it in the same area (common/technology/tier).

How do I research a technology with the console?

Open the console (~) and type research_technology followed by the technology's ID, for example research_technology tech_lasers_1. Every ID is in the table on this page.
