Training Skills
Skills in Seed are trained over time, although they may also be boosted by the use of Inspirations. Training time (in minutes) is calcuated according the following formula:
Training Time = 10 x (Difficulty ^ 3) x (2 ^ (Current skill level))
So for instance, to train Administration Level 2 (Diff: 2) it will take:
(10 x 2 ^ 3) x 2 ^ 1 = 160min (2h40m)
To train Containment Tech Level 4 (Diff: 3) it will take:
(10 x 3 ^ 3) x 2 ^ 3 = 2160min (36h)
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. Also, the official formula is actually "(2^(desired level)) * 300 * (difficulty^3)" - which gives training time in seconds, since the skill system increments a training point each second.
