In multiplayer, players on the same team will share the same research queue

Settings

Under Settings -> Mod Settings -> Per player -> Improved Research Queue you can customize the following settings:

Research completion notifications - If enabled, a message will be posted in your chat when a research completes for your team. Helpful to be able to see a history of completed researches in the chat.

You can customize the the keyboard shortcut to open the Research Queue window in Settings -> Controls -> Mods -> Improved Research Queue.

Tips

Do not use the vanilla research queue with this mod; this mod will most likely overwrite the vanilla queue. However, starting and cancelling research using the vanilla technology GUI will work fine with this mod. Starting a new research will add it to the start of the queue and unpause the queue. Cancelling the current research will pause the queue.

While using this mod you probably want to turn off the vanilla setting that brings up the technology screen after every research since the mod will auto-select the next research for you if you have a queue set up. Disable the option under Settings -> Interface -> Interaction -> Technology screen opens when research is completed.
