Skill time increased this evening - was it because I bought a card!!!

So I have one skill to learn, the new TR2 and I've been trying to accumulate upgrades so I thought I'd try getting 'Intellectual Speed IV' to see if it would reduce the learning time for that skill. I don't know if it was as a result of acquiring that particular skill but when I went to check my learning time for TR2 has now gone up! It was 13 days something and now it's 14 days something. Help!

NB - nothing else has changed about my skill learning - I had all the skills before the switch to imagination last night. Well, except I purchased a couple of brain capacity upgrades which didn't have any effect on the learning time for TR2.

  • It has nothing to do with your buying a card, and all to do with the change to imagination yesterday. It isn't a bug.

  • @Millie But TR2 wasn't released until after the game came back up yesterday, so the 13 days (which is also what it was for me when I started learning it) is what it was at that point.

  • Ah, okay. Nvm me then! I was under the impression that TRII was one of the skills from before.

  • My skill learning times have also increased since this morning, and I didn't make any changes (haven't even logged into the world).  I've posted some comments in an existing related bug report, but thought I should comment here as well to let you (geekybird) know that you're not crazy. :-)

    It may well be that the upgrade you bought worked properly, but some unrelated change increased the time for the skill so much that there is a net increase (i.e. if you HADN'T bought the upgrade maybe it would take 15+ days to learn TR2 now).  That would be my guess based on what I've noticed with my own skill learning times.

  • Interestingly, in the half hour or so after I posted my reply above, the devs changed something and my skill learning times dropped back down.  I think they also fixed my original bug, which was that upgrading brain capacity wasn't doing anything to learning times.  Yay devs!

  • Yep, this all seems to be fixed now. Yay!

    Thanks devs :0)
