Title: Question about the Logic skill affecting learning rate
Post by: viewpoint on 2009 July 06, 19:24:00
It seems the logic skill will improve skill gain rate for the other skills. Is this true? Can anyone confirm it?

I was poking around the GameplayData.package file, and found this:

    <SkillGainModPerLevelUp value=".033">
      <!--Skill Gain rate mod to add to skills for each level of logic skill the sim has-->
    </kSkillGainModPerLevelUp>

That would mean at logic skill level 10, skill gain rate for the other skills will go up by 33% faster.

Does that also mean the logic skill itself also gets the modifier? The logic skill's increase rate will also be bumped up as the skill goes up?

HOLYSHIZWHIZZ!!!!

The Prima Guide was actually right about something! The Apocalypse, it is nigh.  :o

And I quote: (because it was gifted; no, I didn't spend my own money on it)

As this skill is developed, it shortens the time it takes to develop other skills, with the exception of Athletic and Charisma. [Can anyone confirm these two skills?] Teen and child Sims also get a homework speed boost as this skill is developed... This skill also increases the chance of winning all varieties of games.

Confirmed that those 2 skills don't receive logic boost.

<LogicSkillBoost>True</LogicSkillBoost> only exists for the other skills, not for Athletic or Charisma.
