Hey, any tips on how to obtain tech points faster? Also, in what order would you recommend purchasing the tech level upgrades?

Here's Arthur's tip from the official guide:
Click to reveal..
The more skilled a researcher is, the more points they produce. Higher levels of Science technology increase the number of tech points that each researcher produces. Keeping a fire lit gives a small tech point bonus, and, finally, collecting missing lab pieces gives a bonus for each piece retrieved. All of these things combined make for very productive researchers!

Having a dozen or more peps working in the lab helps too.

Regarding upgrades, each person has their own preferences in what works best for them. I started with the cheeper upgrades and worked my way up.

OK. This is where I'm going to pos this,as I have been searching for a post on NOT GIVING UP on your tribe in VV5. I had ALMOST lost my 2nd tribe by NOT PAUSING the game last night,and found ALL 8 of my kids as adults. I had all the buildings built that was needed and COULDN'T expand my pop.to make babies,had 17,000+ tech pts., was working on getting construction pts, and I was FREAKING OUT in what to do as I knew I was loosing tech pts with NO kids. So BEFORE I left, I reread the tech ?'s and found that IF I made ALLL the adults scientists that would help. I didn't worry about food as I had the Bloom GP.
SO when I came back 3 hrs. later this afternoon, I found I had 115,000+ tech pts. So I IMMEDIATELY went to construction and food to MAX buildings and food. Then I looked at my YOUNGEST peeps and started making babies.I stopped at the age of 50 to get the babies. I'll have 6 babies in the morn. I'll PAUSE tonite.
Click to reveal..
As the result of me NOT PAUSING last nite, I thought I WASN'T going to be able to FINISH the statue, because I haven't gotten ALL the relics yet. ut NOW I will be able to FINISH the game.
Also last night, when I did the Blind Totem, I was AMAZED at the BRIGHTNESS of the area when it was lit. It was like the Mosaic area in VV3. NICE TOUCH to the game.

So when ALL fails and you are about to GIVE UP, REREAD the ?"s in the tech area and they will give you the answers to your problems.

Happy gaming in VV5

How right you are!
Here's a quote I often tell myself "When everything else fails, read the instruction."
Continues good luck guiding you family!
