    Scientist NW gain capped at Professor

    If I am not mistaken, once a scientist is maxed in its value at professor, the province will still gain NW/experience every tick.

    Is there a reason for this? I understand networth of the scientist going up as its inherent value increases, but once it hits professor shouldn't it stop?

    Is the only reason to make it harder for Amnesia to be used against you?

    A possible solution if this is the case is maybe cap the extra unneeded experience, maybe make a fourth rank of scientist (Doctor) that doesn't gain any better effects than a professor, but exp stops generating once Doctor is reached. Perhaps 48h of experience past Professor gives you Doctor. That way you are somewhat protected from one amnesia dropping all your profs, but also NW gain throughout the course of an age doesn't become an issue. Some spec based race/pers are built around Low NW.

    No, experience is given for up to 72 hours after they hit professor (because they get a "buffer" against the amnesia spell) but after that, they no longer gain additional NW. So what you are suggesting is pretty much already implemented, minus the extra rank.
