Why 5000 tech points to change clothes? It's almost like penalizing you for solving a puzzle. It should be free.

My villagers will be wearing the same clothes until tech points are not needed for anything else.

It was never that big a deal to me anyway.

Not a big deal to me either, I just think we are being a little [censored]. 5000 is a lot per outfit.

Are Tech points going to be as hard to get once the puzzles are done as they were in VV1? I could NOT make an Adept Scientist once that happened in VV1 no matter what I tried to do with them, I had one person die of old age as a Trainee Scientist with no other skills at all. He basically became the Village Laundry person! I wish he was one of the first 50 so I could take a screen shot of his marker, but he wasn't.

I hope not, but then again if you have a lot of villagers and they are all researching, they should come in bunches.

No they won't be, because the sewing hut requires 5000 points per outfit they still have a reason to earn tech points even after the puzzles are completed and you can get master researchers just as easily as before

In Virtual Villagers: The Lost Children, the villagers will continue to research as long as you want them to.

I'm glad of that! I really didn't want to let the skill die out in VV1, but I really had no choice about it in any of my villages. I still have 5 of them going strong. Even though I'm not as attached to the descendents as I was to the originals.
