Skill Descriptors

Postby Solfius » Sat May 06, 2006 7:47 pm

I have a character that is building a house. When I look at the character page, the description doesn't show a descriptor, and the skills list doesn't show the building skill. Yet, in the wiki it lists a Building skill, and apparently it's implemented.

Is this an error in the wiki, or a bug?

I've had characters collecting things of fishing and the skill level hasn't shown up.

I think sometimes it just takes a while.

I think skills aren't implemented for certain kinds of buildings. For example I've had that issue with the full stone buiding. Then a skill popped up when that character built a stone extension.

So, a "feature", I'd say. I'm kind of pleased that the huge projects (large buildings, roads) don't have a skill tied to them. Don't know if that's mangagement's intention though. ;)

I don't see the rationale behind it, if that is the case, but I wanted to make sure.

Correct: It could be an old project, or a building that hasn't had the skill assigned to it yet. There are a lot of things that haven't been given a skill yet because we haven't had the time to fish them out quite yet.

It is so disorienting to hear a complaint that a skill is not in effect these days. :roll: I guess you can just count yourself lucky that you can be one of the fortunately bland souls that can do the job as good as anybody. :wink:
