Research with allies

[Safety0ff]

The heart's colour changes to show whether an item is fully funded, underfunded, or paused, and if you select to research the same item as an ally, you help fund it with your own power and un-pause it if it is paused

Maybe hovering the mouse over the heart could show the progress (at least in fixed teams mode,) I don't know how difficult this would be with the gui code.

How's about if I just make the heart pink? That should make it easier to see.

I'm still thinking about how to handle concurrent research. Maybe disallow it entirely unless you hold down Alt?

Yea giving it a yellow- redish color will make it stand out.

With the resource flow system, if it is put into place, would it be possible to pull power from both sides? obviously not charge them both fully, but if you pulled half as much from each person (unless one side is stalling, in such case it would pull 100% from the side thats not stalling). This way, people can make sure techs are being researched without wasting resources on it..
