Issue: A Distinguished Communications Degree with Honors gives a smaller career boost than a regular Communications Degree without honors in the Noble and Romance Consultant careers.
This is how degrees are supposed to impact career performance, PTO accrual, and simoleon pay boosts:
- Regular Degree: lowest boost
- Regular Degree with Honors: 2nd lowest boost
- Distinguished Degree: 2nd highest boost
- Distinguished Degree with Honors: the best degree; highest boost
But Noble and Romance Consultant careers treat regular Foxbury Communications degrees as if they were Distinguished, giving them larger boosts than both Britechester Distinguished degrees.
Code from the career_Noble_Level1 tuning files shows both Foxbury communications degrees wrongly giving a higher simoleon bonus than the Distinguished communications degrees from Britechester. CommunicationsDegreeBA/BS need to be switched here.What should happen: Distinguished degrees should provide higher boosts than their equivalent non-distinguished degrees for the Noble and Romance Consultant careers.
I reported this exact issue last year for Lovestruck's Romance Consultant career, but a CM mistakenly moved it to a Feedback thread when it is clearly a bug in the code mixing up which communications degree is distinguished.
