Progress on Skills impossible?

Post by ShowNoMercy »

Is it possible to raise your skills atm?

I fixed like 10 cars today, but the progress-bars is still like it was after reading the first book?

Is there any "secret" or does it just take a million processes to go up?

Ditto. I put 10 scrap on a car and the body went from being good (yellow) to satisfactory (orange). I have read the first 3 mechanics books, changed some tires, installed windscreen, installed engines and fuel tanks and fixed bodies and still no progression.

You have to find books for the parts. Ive been disassembling engines to learn how to fix them better from the car and truck engine book. Books can be found pretty easily in the large 2 story schools that have a indoor basketball court. You dont get better by putting parts on vehicles as far as i know.

FYI, You can not spam the progress bar. Let me explain it.
Lets say you are "researching" the medic skill tree and you are working on cloths. You need to wait an X amount of time between each cloth use for the progress bar to grow. If you use a cloth right after another, you will only get credit for using the first cloth. This is to prevent boosting.

This is what i was told during testing and I have not notice a change. Maybe It's bug right now?
