There are currently four skills lines - Repair, Production, Administration, and Research. Trade-Off abilities are marked with (T). Trade-Off abililties are special in that they do not need to be trained. They are gained when you train the prerequisite skill to the required level.

Training Skills

Skills in Seed are trained over time, although they may also be boosted by the use of Inspirations. Training time (in seconds) is calcuated according the following formula:

Training Time = ( 2 ^ Level ) * 300 * ( Diff ^3 )

So for instance, to train Administration Level 2 (Diff: 2) it will take:

( 2^[Level 2] ) * 300 * ( [Diff 2]^3 ) = 9600 seconds = 160 minutes (2h40m)

To train Containment Tech Level 4 (Diff: 3) it will take:

( 2^[Level 4] ) * 300 * ( [Diff 3]^3 ) = 129600 seconds = 2160 minutes (72h)

Shortcut Formula

In order to keep the arithmetic a bit easier to calculate, the formula can be simplified to:

Training Time (in minutes) = 10 x ( 2 ^ (current level) ) x (difficulty ^ 3)

Note that the above times have been shortened for beta. It has not yet been said what the times will be for the official game.
