I'm making glue in a chem station and getting xp for it

[ElCabong]

I have the window open and each unit is giving 1xp. Same with forged iron

 

Thought this was taken out of the game.

Imo works like intentded. Never heared this was removed. I would be sad when this gets removed.

If my memory serves me, you get full xp on 1st craft and minimum there after.

Not just happening for glue with the chem station. As long as you have a workstation's crafting interface open, excluding the player backpack, you'll get exp as the items queued finish crafting. Exp drops by about a third each craft but looks to bottom out at 1, I suspect due to the game rounding values above 0 but below 1 up to 1. Tested in 19.6 stable. Wasn't happening in 19.5 for me as far as I recall.

12>8>6>4>3>2>2>2>1>1>1 is roughly the xp return sequence I encountered when I tested.

It's been in and out to one degree or another at different times in the past. It will be interesting to see how it all settles for the final version. I honestly have no idea where it will land it has changed so many times.

On a side note, the auger begins to lose max block damage once it reaches 50% max durability and below, a feature that was once the case in all tools (and weapons) but are now a part of a by-gone age... with the exception of this relic. Hopefully this will be addressed sometime in the future as well.
