Past projects that could not be completed in the previous period are automatically continued at the beginning of the decision period. Hence, all your uncompleted projects will appear in the R&D home form shown in Figure 49. Click on a project name to zoom on the project and show its recap form, as shown in Figure 53.
To continue a project, you simply need to allocate a budget to it, as explained in sections V.11.F and V.11.G. Because a continued project is a past project, the recap form tells you exactly what budget is required to complete it. The other decisions – name, description, characteristics and base cost – cannot be modified.
To shelve a project, simply click the button at the bottom of the form. The project will be removed from your current R&D decisions and will no longer appear on the form in Figure 49. Shelved projects may be continued at any time, as explained in section V.11.C.
