    Exclamation Troops Generation Time!

    Hello guys.. Hope you're all doing fine..
    Something came to my mind while waiting for my troops to generate in about 35 minutes! My troops cost included elixir and dark elixir as hogs..
    What came to my mind is that barracks are split into Barracks and Dark Barracks.. So if I wanted a hog it will be generated from the dark barracks only and the other is also the same for ordinary barracks.. So the obvious thing is why the generation time from ordinary barracks and dark barracks is being added in series?! While it's supposed to be added in parallel and the result is the longest generation time of them!

    Example:
    My ordinary barracks are level 7,8,8 and 9. And dark barracks is level 2.
    If I was to generate one hog and one wizard so according to the time calculated by the game right now it'll take 2 mins.. 0:30 for the wizard and 1:30 for the hog..
    Instead it's supposed to be 1:30 mins cause the wizard is generated from a different barracks..

    What I meant to say at the end is to separate the generation time of Barracks and Dark Barracks from each other and make the total generation time the longest of them..

    Thanks for listening..

    If they went back to the old way like you are suggesting they would add the training time back also.

    So no thanks I'm good with the shorter train times now.

    I believe they were 2 mins each. If you have both dark barracks upgraded they take 45 sec each now. Golems use to take 45 mins each now 5 mins. Dragons took 30 mins for each barracks, now if you only have 1 barracks upgraded it's 12 mins. If you have all 4 barracks upgraded it's 3 mins for each drag.

    It's always amazing to me when I see a new-ish feature being taken for granted because there was no experience with the old way of doing things. And that's not a criticism, that's just how it is. I never had to wait four hours for my spells, but I never liked that they took 30-45 minutes when I started playing.

    Troops used to train in parallel with one another, but they had significantly longer training times. Wizards weren't done in thirty seconds, they took eight minutes. So yeah, you could train four at a time, but you'd still only get four in eight minutes. Now they're trained in series, but they only take thirty seconds. So the same eight minutes gets you sixteen wizards instead of four

    I believe you didn't get my point..
    I'm not talking about whether the barracks are upgraded or not..
    I'm talking about the total training time not a particular training time..
    I'm talking about not adding the time of ordinary barracks and dark barracks together to end in a long period of time..
    I'm talking about squeezing down the time not widening it up..
    Did you get my point?

    Why are barracks and dark barracks troops trained in the same area with the same time interval?!
    Would you please answer this question.. and again I'm not talking about upgrading barracks..

    Search for the May 2016 update discussions in the General sub-forum, I'm pretty sure the reasoning behind the changes was gone into there.

    That's exactly what I'm talking about.. https://forum.supercell.com/showthre...+time+barracks

    split barracks time from dark barracks time so that they run simultaneously "in parallel"..

    This.

    I did explain that before we could train separate but the times were longer. Why do you ignore that and keep asking the same question?
