I do believe i found a major glitch/exploit. I am on greenhaven and somehow glitched my CI. i had around 4k worth and went into buy the deep storage and salvage routing on the machine tree. bought them, and my CI did not go down at all. i was able to buy the rest of what is available to me without losing any CI
Not a glitch. CI never gets spent. The numbers on the machine tree are milestones: once your CI reaches that number the skill is yours, and you keep all of it. Money skills are the ones that actually cost you money. The tree shows that number like a price though, so I totally get why it looked like a bug.
