Major drop in caps earned from collections today

Post » Sat Feb 13, 2016 10:28 pm

Been playing from Day 1. 200 happy dwellers, 370k or so caps. Almost 85% of my dwellers have 10+ Luck.



As of today, I'm getting about 1/20th the amount of caps from doing my collection rounds. Wasn't even getting bonus caps from successfully rushing some rooms either. Yesterday I was averaging 1500 or so per collection round, now I'm lucky to see 200.



What happened? Anyone else noticing this?

More than anything else, it sounds like the RNG.

Don't know what the "RNG" means (?) Nevertheless, having a high Luck meant that you received a nice bonus the majority of the time when collecting. Now, nothing. I've trained my entire population around this and was making great cash. Now getting squat. What happened?

Random Number Generation, you were probably just unlucky receiving low amounts of caps.

No. Something is broken. Don't know how many of you have a vault full of 10+ Luck dwellers, but just a couple days ago I stopped getting much of anything from my collection rounds. I have 21 primary resource rooms, all full of 10+ Luck dwellers, and can do full rounds of collections and get zero bonus caps. Repeatedly. Something changed / is broken either recently or at the upper level of Luck skill.


I started training Luck for my whole vault early on and have been enjoying massive returns on caps during collection rounds. Now, almost nothing. Rushing is rarely giving bonus caps as well.

I have noticed no drops in caps production in my full shelter. T

Are the rooms FULL of Dwellers with 10 Luck? My first goal was to get everyone to 7 or 8. Amazing caps return. Once everyone had at least 7, I've been training them 10 - now the cap returns are at a snails pace. Still are. I can do a full round of collections and not get a single cap.
