Troop upgrades continue while your lab upgrades...

[pln0ygunz]

There's been some confusion on this.. Some people say it doesn't some people says it does well I can confirm that it does. I started my lab upgrade while my Hounds had 3 days left in its upgrade. When the lab finished 6 days later it still said that it had 3 days left HOWEVER I went and did an attack in one of the goblin map(just dropped my AQ and hit surrender) and when I came back to my village Lava hound upgrade finished! So if you do this make sure to do an attack and it should finish the upgrade..

That happened to me, also. Put my minions to upgrade, with 4 days remaing i upgraded the lab. For my surprise, when the lab finished, minion time to upgrade was only 1 day and a few hours remaining.

As far as I'm aware, upgrading your lab is only supposed to PAUSE the upgrade, not lenghten or shorten the remaining troop upgrade time.

If yours is doing something other than that, it could be a bug.

Many people have reported what the OP had stated, it seems to have changed several months ago by now. But it wasn't in the update notes (not everything is as you know), and th10s would never have any chance of experiencing it and it doesn't happen often and stuff so it isn't widely talked about really.

Hmm, those are good points. However, even if they did change it, I'm sure it doesn't (intentionally) rely on you attacking in order to gain that time back.

OP, are you certain the lab upgrade time wasn't deducted BEFORE you did the attack?

There does seem to be some confusion because, as far as I know, it used to pause the upgrade, and now it doesn't. But there's a catch, just like you mentioned. It appears that you need to restart the game or do an attack after the lab upgrade finishes, and then the research time will update.

I'd like to do this when I go to TH10. Who knows if this will still work by then, because this does sound like a bug.

Other people have reported the same, either the whole thing is a bug or it requiring you to leave your base (which is probably why you have to attack) is a bug.

Wish i knew that, lab finished and still had 3 days left on giants to lvl 6......gemmed em.....grrrrr........

Exactly. Probably the whole thing, but hopefully not.

that might be a glitch with the game. the lab is supposed to PAUSE the upgrade in the lab while the lab is upgrading, not shorten or legthen it.
