Bookkeeper dying causes counts to stay hidden (EDIT: nev
« on: April 11, 2008, 07:32:00 pm »

...sigh, I just realized that this is all because I got the broker confused with the bookkeeper. Please ignore me.

My bookkeeper died to an errant fire man caused by careless channel digging. At the time, he had achieved "high" precision for my production and trade counts. When I re-opened the game the next day, my counts had been hidden with the "you need a bookkeeper" text, so I assigned one and set the precision to high. Said bookkeeper did no work, and when I checked his settings, they claimed that enough work had been done to achieve high precision, but the status screen still said I needed a bookkeeper.

I've currently set the precision to maximum, and he's started working. I assume that once that's achieved my numbers will return, but it's gonna take a while.

Incidentally, recordkeeping gives experience incredibly quickly. My totally-untrained bookkeeper made it to "Competent" just going from 18% of the way to maximum precision to 21%, and gained a level of agility, to boot.
