THE NPCs improve their skills for a short time. A few percent. Then the skills stop increasing. Helps: Exit to the main menu and reload save.
Once reload save, the NPC can improve their skills again by a few points. And then they stop progressing again.
Because of this, with a long game, the NPC barely progresses in skills.
How to fix it? (For a stable build 0.E-3 Ellison-3)
In the 0.E-1 Ellison-1, it was only the NPC with a trait of “slow learning”.
In the 0.E-3 Ellison-3 and latest experimental build, all NPCs have a learning problem.
I really need to fix it.
I not use “no_npc_food”.
it would help to know exactly what version you’re playing on, and what you’re doing to help them increase their exp.
Edit: by reading books to my NPC’s, i increased their skills in medical to 3, pretty easily, without having to restart… gonna take em into combat to see if shooting increases.
took my level 1 marksmanship boy out to shoot things, is now up from 33% marksmanship to 59% marksmanship after shooting up a troll.
There is no difference between original 0.E and point release 0.E-3 in that area.
yeah i’ve tested it a bit and i cant reproduce whatever issue you’re having. possibly its a mod you have installed causing the problems?
Me and my friend are having a similar issue now after updating experimental yesterday. When we read books the skill doesn’t increase at all but repeatedly shows the dialogue, “(skill) had increased to %0”
Didn’t try anything except resort back to previous save before updating.
Made this account just to try to find help. Any advice anyone?
