Talk:Research Technical Details

Research Time Bugs?

It seems odd to me that all the research projects are evenly divisible by 10 except for the live aliens (everything except for the Sectoid Commander) and the Power Suit. The Sectoid Commander has a time of 190 man-days which is probably the value that the programmers wanted for all the other aliens (currently 192 man-days). As for the Power Suit, it has a time of 205 man-days. I was at a loss to explain this until I wondered what the average time was between Personal Armor and the Flying Suit. Those have research times of 180 and 430 man-days respectively for an average of 305 man-days for the Power Suit (compare this to the current value of 205). This kinda throws up some red-flags to me indicating a possible typo or data entry problem. Just wondering what you guys think of this? --Zombie 17:45, 11 November 2009 (EST)
