[0.980][bug?] Knowledge Trade Broken

from Elemental Forums

Knowledge trade suddenly stopped giving any increase in knowledge. The trade works fine, but I'm not gaining anything in the tech tree.

Edit: Title changed from [0.981] to [0.980]

surely you mean [.980]

No, the second 0.98 update is known in some places (like the download installer) as "0.981".

No, SDC says it's 0.980.1. 0.981 has not yet been released.

Regarding the topic, Knowledge points are applied randomly to all applicable techs. Depending on how far along you are in the tech tree, the techs may be too expensive for the points to make a noticeable difference.

Maybe it's 0.980.1, maybe 0.98b. I don't think it differs from 0.98 in this matter.

I'll change the heading to not confuse things.

Has no one had this issue?

I am assuming that if I make 50 research per turn and I buy 50 "magic" from Magnar, I should have one turn less displayed on one of the techs in the magic tree.

Oh wait... It could be 12.5 on four different techs and thus not one turn less on any of them?

I wonder if there is somewhere in the heirgamenon that tells us these things. This is something that I would like to know about. Thanks for the info.

I pretty sure research overflow still works though.  Or at least, if you get a research bonus, as long as you don't quit out it applies the remaining research to the next tech you pick.
