[BUG] efficient machine is working, but counts much slower than should

[karabass]

Platform: OSX

Version: 347

Description: If 500 days means 100% of badge progress then 1% should tick once in a 5 days. On the first screenshot it's day 279, the day I got stuck in the snow shelter and it was the day Patrick told me you fixed the "Efficient Machine" badge progress. My badge progress was 0% at the time and it increased to 1% on a day 300. I decided to watch this badge progress while I work on other badges. Second screenshot shows the day 323 and it's still 1% of "Efficient Machine". It does't work as it should, that's for sure.

While trying to get "Machine" progress up to 2% my "Cold Fusion" went from 54 up to 100, I got the "Free Runner" badge, so it looks like 50 days passed already.

maybe it's not retroactive?

I didnt say about retroactivity, man. I know math is hard science so it's not obvious, but I should get 1% every 5 days, 100% for 500 days. I spent 50 days and got 1%. That means progress is much slower than it should be. Or no progress at all.

misreading what you said, I thought you wanted your 323 days ;;)

The game seems to screw numbers when using old save.

Can confirm this, as I described here:

Basically I played the nomad challenge and it took me 55 days, which gave me 8% in the counter, while it should be 11% according to the description.

This is something we're currently working on a hotfix for.

I as well have encountered this with one of my Stalker sandboxes...I am over 500 days, but the Badge has not triggered.
