I cannot tell if this is a bug or not.

from Elemental Forums

Q is stable enough and I started enjoying Elemental again but then I noticed after maybe... twenty, thirty turns that units are taking twice as long to train. If this is some irreversible bug i'll probably stop playing until the next update but if this is a part of the game Ill be okay. I'd also like to ask that if this is a part of the game, can someone explain the reasoning/conditions for this to occur?

As you add parts to soldiers, such as armor, the time it takes to build increases. Also, if you train groups or such, it actually triples the time, sometimes even greater time.

There are a fair handful of things that increase unit training time. To decrease it again, build a barracks (or upgrades thereof).

No, you guys misunderstand what I'm saying. I'm talking about vanilla units like pioneers suddenly taking 8 seasons to produce instead of just four.

 

When I asked about conditions I was asking if there was some hidden stat causing this, like maybe if you have a high pop production takes longer or something along those lines.

The default value is 8 for pioneers. There's no hidden stat that improves training time, besides the obvious ones that you get from building war buildings.
