Shouldn't your research points reset when you liquidate? It'd only make sense for this since you are starting everything else over too..

Lol I don't think you misunderstand what liquidate means... you lose take 90% of your networth and start over.. you lose 100s of turns of work and effort. This is no quick exploitable feature.

No, you loose 10% of your net worth
Moving just your HQ, you loose 5%

Yes, I think that was just a dyslexic moment. But you also lose all of your structures, so you are starting over from scratch in that sense.

When you liquidate you lose a LOT more than just 10% of your net worth.

You lose all your military power, you lose all of your assets and ability to generate revenue. You have to start again from scratch which will take time (probably a couple of weeks, even with the cash). When you factor in the opportunity cost that all this represent your actual loss is closer to 20-25% of net worth.

You are probably going to be working in a different production area altogether so it makes sense to reset the research points and it is not something easily abused. On the other side it's not too difficult right now to change the research points either so it feels like something nice to have but not a game breaking priority.

You have to think about an alt with a single mine, not a main account. The player wants to mine a different Raw. Liquidate looses almost nothing

It still takes time to build up those production facilities. If your concern is second accounts the point is moot. You would just transfer all the wealth out and start a brand new account. I can't imagine someone investing a lot of money in leveling up second HQ's. And if they are then they are effectively two players cooperating very closely together. It's such a time suck operating one high level corporation effectively that I don't see a lot of practical use for second ones except maybe for espionage or to fight proxy wars.
