I'm seeking clarification about how BPO research can be conducted in the upcoming expansion.

I know you can put the BPO in a POS and do the research, but what about BPOs in stations?

Do they need to be in a station with research facilities?

Can I copy a BPO in one station and have it delivered in another in the same region?

Do I need an office in the delivered station if a corp job?

I'm asking because there are 1000s of BPOs locked in a station with no research in station or system.

Will I need to unlock and move?

To try and answer a few of those questions.

From what I read and how I understood it, to research BPO's at a POS you'll need to physically bring the BPO to the POS. No longer will you be able to remotely research the BPO at a POS while it's physically at a station.

As for research at stations is still possible but there will need to be as research facility present.

For you other questions, i'm not sure. Hope I helped a little.

You can't put BPO in station and research it in POS (that is in same solar). You can research BPO in station that alone has research facilities.

Do they need to be in a station with research facilities?
Yes. Station research you do in station, POS research you do in POS (you have to put BPO in POS labs).

Can I copy a BPO in one station and have it delivered in another in the same region?
No.

Do I need an office in the delivered station if a corp job?
Not 100% sure but I think - Yes.

I'm asking because there are 1000s of BPOs locked in a station with no research in station or system.

Yes, ether to research POS or Station with research facilities. Good thing is that now stations will always have free slots for you but the instal/research cost will change.

There are no longer any slots of any kind. You will always be able to start a job in a facility of the correct type, with a cost based, in part, on the fraction of jobs in the entire universe, have run in your system, in the last 28 days.

The cost will be determined by a fraction of the price of the product. For blueprints, this is based off 2% of the price of what gets made. It will normally be around 1-5% of the price of the product (so blueprints will be at 0.1% ish before other modifiers)

Woo! CSM XI!

ALL slots are going away. So manufacturing, copying, ME, PE, RE, invention. No more slots, just scaling prices based on demand.
