Electro-Mechanical Computer

[Jorath13]

Once this project has been researched I notice that the Worker Efficiency project I'm currently researching goes down in IC cost by 1 point. However, that's not 10%. Also the time to research does not decrease. In addition, projects that I'm not researching tend to go down in time required to research, but not IC.

What gives? Playing VH/Aggressive with 1.3b patch as Germany - bearing in mind the Electro-Mech Computer is my 1st item of research and the Worker Eff is 2nd on my list (though it's Jan 16 '39 before I get that project).

In general gaining the computer techs doesn't affect things you are already researching. The IC/time shown does drop to the new level but you'll notice that the total IC requirement for research doesn't change. It does seem to change when you reload, however (maybe a bug, maybe not computer tech-related, just rounding errors).
Also Basic Electromechanical Computers only give a 5% reduction in cost & time. Worker Efficiency I (in Shep's tech mod) costs 20 IC so 5% would be 1.

I`ll move this to the scenarion forum...
