Training Skills
Skills in Seed are trained over time, although they may also be boosted by the use of Inspirations. Training time is calcuated according the following formula:
Training Time = Difficulty Time x 2 ^ (Current skill level)
...where Difficulty Time is determined according to the following table:
- Difficulty 1 - 10 minutes
- Difficulty 2 - 80 minutes
- Difficulty 3 - ?? minutes
- ...
So for instance, to train Administration Level 2 (Diff: 2) it will take:
80min x 2 ^ 1 = 160min (2h40m)
To train Administration Level 4 (Diff: 2) it will take:
80min x 2 ^ 3 = 640min (10h40m)
