**Tech team By Floffy, Jordan, Igor, Simon**\
\&#xNAN;**-** Continued working on the Research Center, adding the facility itself, it’s features, but also the effect each research will have on the game (march time update, build time update, etc…)\
\- Updated the facilities system to have our delayed facilities (facilities that are still under construction) stored in our Redis db and not our permanent database. This will help not overload the DB for temporary tasks\
\- Some testing and bug fixing, as we continue improving the Beta v2 and still going towards the Beta v3
