Talk:Difficulty (Long War)
Alien research rate
I'm confused about the mention to different research rates by difficulty here. This doesn't show up in any other parts of the wiki, and I haven't noticed any difference in research speed between them, with aliens always going at 1/day.
- It's actually 0.7/1/1.1/1.3 points per day.
- I don't want to be a contrarian or anything, but I'm tracking my career with one of these mods that shows the alien stats in the situation room, and playing on normal I have 85 alien research on the 25th of May, which is exactly 1/day. Also, watching a youtube series (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLesIE_v8rF23yN4lzI2e3gILUe0aVTSjo) on impossible with the same mod shows 1/day as well. Even assuming the mod gives the wrong info... I had a downed raider in the 2nd of April with floaters and thin men, those should only show up at iMonth = 1
- Possibly, difficulty only affects alien Bonus Research, not standard research, which is always 1 point per day.
