Supersolid Materials
Supersolid Materials is a tier 3 engineering technology (Materials) in Stellaris 4.5.2. Its base cost is 6,000 research. It needs Self-Connecting Circuitry. It unlocks Advanced Engineering Complex. Console: research_technology tech_engineering_3.
What Supersolid Materials unlocks
Everything in the game files that lists this technology as a prerequisite; “condition” marks objects that check for it in their conditions instead.
How to get Supersolid Materials
Research in Stellaris is drawn: each area offers 3 cards at a time, weighted by each technology's draw weight (here 50) and its weight modifiers. Tier 3 opens after 6 tier 2 technologies of the same area.
The whole research path: 3 technologies, 10,500 base research with this one

In the game
The quantum mechanical properties of these materials hold the key to superposition states, a revolutionary development for both material and industrial science.

}Supersolid Materials: questions
How do I get Supersolid Materials in Stellaris?
Research Self-Connecting Circuitry first (3 technologies in the whole chain); then Supersolid Materials can be drawn as one of the 3 engineering research options. It also has conditions (see Requirements on this page).
What does Supersolid Materials do?
It unlocks Advanced Engineering Complex (building).
What is the ID of Supersolid Materials?
The technology's ID is tech_engineering_3. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_engineering_3 (Stellaris 4.5.2).
How much does Supersolid Materials cost?
6,000 engineering research before modifiers. In game the cost grows with empire size (+0.2% per point above the base, common/defines) and the galaxy's tech cost setting.
