Skill Books Not Working or...
Either skill books are not working right or I don't know how they work, or both!
Writing level 1, working on writing aspiration.
I read writing skill book 1, and skill progresses to 2. Sim puts book down of own accord when skill hits level 2. Fine, I figure that the range might be 1-2 for Book 1.
I practice writing and skill progresses from 2 to 3.
I do some other things, go back to read Skill Book 2. They read the book, no skill bar, no advancement. Ok, maybe I am done with book 2 already.
I go read book 3. They read the book, same thing. No advancement.
Can't find any documentation, it could be working as intended.
Tried with a skill I had not encountered before. Finished the book, put it away on the bookcase -- skill was halfway from 1 to 2. Read it again. Advanced to level 3. Kept reading book1, and skill kept progressing. No skill bar on book 2 while skill at level 3. Able to re-read skill book 1 4 times to advance to level 3 of skill (mixology) and then keep advance toward level 4.
So either I'm really confused about how books are supposed to work now, which is possible, or the skill books are confused about what they have to teach me. I don't understand why it is inconsistent from skill to skill. If my skill is high (6+) i don't seem to be able to learn anything from a book which is fine if it's how it's supposed to work.
