I'm at 198 skill points right now (about 100 are spread out across my top four skills), but like I said, I've be trying to train him in everything, from music and art, to science and business, to first aid.  You should be able to use the page keys (be they brackets or whatever) to move up and down that list.  I even have a second liberal I wasn't even trying to get up there who's now got more than 14 skills.

There is some unexpected behaviour with spare magazines. I had submitted this to SVN, but it seems I misinterpreted it, so I'll post here an update. I noticed that my liberals were running out of ammo very quickly, despite me buying them spare magazines. At first I thought that spare magazines counter gets zeroed after combat, but after some experimentation I determined that it's not the case. In fact, liberals reload their weapons when going to a mission, even if they are only one cartrige short. This caused me to lose much money on those expensive AR-15 magazines  :) So I suggest that liberals only reload automatically when their gun is empty.

my founder who went to prison for 15 years kept loosing juice fir some time. however this seems to have stopped once I actually tried to replicate it (before that I spent a months breaking machines to get him from -50 to 12, just to find him at -50 again a few moths later. and he shouldn't have been at -50 in the first place...)

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

also, the function to autodetect the optimal course of action is not very good. I had a few of my guys with high (4-5) art skill chose to "cause trouble", same with my writers, but when a guy whose only skill was a level 8 in computers chose to do the same I knew that it wasn't working right.

Is not being able to develop the Liberal Guardian HQ after I've set up a printing press a bug or an intentional feautre?

a1s, the founder might lose juice when his cronies fuck up in some way.  Are they prostitutes or dying on missions or something like that?
The default activities are based on the profession of your Liberals, not their actual skills.  Not too difficult to change, but a little tedious.

Khlor, I was thinking of changing the auto-reload behavior myself.  Now that someone else has complained, I probably will next time I dig around the code.

Iskander, the printing press prevents you from otherwise developing a location is a feature, I believe.

Ruttiger, the problem with that is that the page keys also scroll through your liberals.  I guess someone could make a 'n'ext and 'p'revious for that screen...

yeah, they were living in this very evil society, where the penalty for nigh everything was death (in case of most of my operatives- causing trouble), also dating got weird and crack houses had mutants. it was pretty cool.

as for autodetecting action, that is not true. I had several of my guys go from "causing trouble" to "making graffiti" as the default option (this was the result of training).

If someone has Wisdom 5 or more then they will not pick intelligently.  They'll do community service if 8 or higher and cause trouble otherwise.  I'm not sure why this was put into place.

That juice drain is intentional.  You'll have to work harder to rescue the country! Hehehe

huh?  :confused: yes they will. I mean as "intelligently" as your regular guys. No what they said was stuff like "[which church do you go to]?", I'm pretty sure it's a freedom of speech thing.

The wisdom thing is in regard to picking a default trouble action or something. That system went through a few iterations during testing, and at one point high wisdom prohibited some activities. Eventually this turned out to be Not Fun, so it's gone now, but apparently there's remnants of that code in the default activity area.

Nuff said.

After a fun police chase in which two passengers died, I chose some people to dispose the bodies. It let me assign dumping the two bodies to three people. I did. One day later, the guy who dumped the ghost body...wow.

I took him to the hospital, it said he was out in 16 weeks. For some reason he was still in the apartment. I took him again, the game crashed.

Now it says that my current squad was "scattered" on the highscores. Playing the latest version on the wiki.
Also, stashing more than 100 of an item doesn't work right.

Edits: Spelling, link didn't work.

I seem to be incapable of scrolling through any of the lists  :(. Neither my arrow keys nor my Page Up or Page Down keys will scroll.

There should be an init.txt file or something like that in the LCS directory, with an option in there to change the scroll keys to the brackets. If you don't change that setting, the brackets won't work.
