Add a new step to the start of the list in “Synthesis”:-
* For each valid Mutation submitted, reduce the submitter’s Research by its Cost. (In cases where this is not possible, that Mutation submission becomes invalid.)
Replace “which is the amount of Research Points that must be spent to submit the Mutation request and may be 0” with:-
which is an amount of Research Points that may be 0
Having the Research cost deducted during Synthesis, rather than publicly in advance. This would allow players to change their mind without having to pay twice, and remove the incentive to always submit orders late, after seeing if any public costs have been paid by others.
