I'm not sure if this belongs in this section or not since it is an experiment, so moderators can move as necessary!
There has been a longtime 'issue' known amongst some players, regarding loss of skills for no reason whatsoever.
There have been a couple of threads about this in the past:
https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/...any-skills-we-lose-every-time-we-log-out.html
https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/forums/skills/174042-loss-skills.html
I have experienced it once (to my knowledge, I never kept a close eye on skills every session) where I reached the same rank and number of points in a skill a few days apart.
I have spoken to some longtime players that have also had this happen, and it has been suggested that perhaps clicking Exit before the 20 second countdown timer logs you off could have something to do with it.
In order to try to determine if this is still an issue that MA has neglected to address, I plan to screenshot ALL skills at the end of each session. I will use jdegre's Skill Scanner to compare them upon logout/login each time. It will take some extra time but feel this would be useful for the EU community to know!
If I see no loss of skills over 2 weeks time during this period (daily logins) I will also test by exiting game before the timer expires to see if that ends up with a different result.
If there is evidence of disappearing skills, I'll file a support case (with screenshots and timestamps) for each instance and see what happens!
Anybody else is welcome to join in this experiment!
Cheers,
Beech
