Summary
Books can be read for recreation purposes. Books come in three different forms: novels, textbooks, and schematics.
Textbooks
Pawns can read textbooks in order to increase their skills. The quality of the book determines their XP gain per hour. This is modified depending on whether the book touches one or two skills (when touching two skills the number seems to be divided by 1.6).
Awful: 125 XP / hour (max level 2) Poor: 188 XP / hour (max level 5) Normal: 250 XP / hour (max level 8) Good: 312 XP / hour (max level 10) Excellent: 375 XP / hour (max level 12) Masterwork: 438 XP / hour (max level 14) Legendary: 500 XP / hour (max level 16)
Novels
Novels have a recreation gain multiplier. They will fulfull the pawn's need for recreation faster.
Awful: recreation gain multiplier x120% Poor: recreation gain multiplier x140% Normal: recreation gain multiplier x160% Good: recreation gain multiplier x180% Excellent: recreation gain multiplier x200% Masterwork: recreation gain multiplier x225% Legendary: recreation gain multiplier x250%
Schematics
Schematics increase the research point to a certain research. It seems that only schematics can be found for unresearched research (please confirm). When two topics are touched the points gained per topic is lowered.
Awful: 20 / hour Poor: 30 / hour Normal: 40 / hour Good: 50 / hour Excellent: 60 / hour Masterwork: 70 / hour Legendary: 80 / hour
