Autonomous Station Protocols: questions

How do I get Autonomous Station Protocols in Stellaris?

Research Quantum Probes first (4 technologies in the whole chain); then Autonomous Station Protocols can be drawn as one of the 3 physics research options.

What does Autonomous Station Protocols do?

It gives +10% Resources Produced from Research Stations. It leads to Multi-Dimensional Analysis.

What is the ID of Autonomous Station Protocols?

The technology's ID is tech_space_science_4. To get it with the console: research_technology tech_space_science_4 (Stellaris 4.5.2).

How much does Autonomous Station Protocols cost?

3,000 physics 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.
