==What affects Intelligence(Wisdom) and Strength?==
 
  
Almost every time you get the prompt with three choices:
+
'''''See and update [[Artificial_Academy_2/Free_roam_(no_spoiler)|Free roam (no spoiler)]]. This page is archived pending clarification'''''
*Work Hard!
 
*Work Normally.
 
*Work Quick.
 
  
This includes mandatory lessons, club time, voluntary club practice/exercise/study. (Massages not tested.)
+
=Undocumented Features=
  
'''''EVERY MANDATORY PROMPT''''' you get over the course of the day (i.e; lessons, club time, etc.) count as you working by yourself, so the mitigating effects of "Everyone!" and working with a partner do '''''NOT''''' apply.
+
'''2. Same view in H'''
  
Both Work Hard! and Work Normally. have two resulting states each, for a total of 4 different results, indicated by different flavor texts and chimes.
+
During H, toggle the - ''underscore/hyphen key'' - on the PC keyboard and the position of the character on the screen will not change when you repeat the same action. If you go to a different action, the action will be oriented to the placement of the floor in the last action. This is helpful if you want to repeat the same or similar action with the characters in a special screen position, or if you want to position the couple with the furniture in the Love Hotel or at Home.
Those are comprised of:
 
 
 
* Work Hard!
 
** Failure (Less Favorable)
 
** Critical Success (More Favorable)
 
 
 
* Work Normally.
 
** Success (Less Favorable)
 
** Great Success (More Favorable)
 
 
 
Both choices seem to have an the same split between less favorable and more favorable results, which from a sample size of 70 attempts showed 63% less favorable and 37% more favorable.
 
 
 
The third choice, Work Quick, picks a random result from all four of these results, with a slight bias towards the less favorable choices.
 
 
 
===How are Intelligence and Strength affected?===
 
 
 
As stated above, the three choice prompt offers you the chance to(read: forces you to) influence Intelligence and Strength. Both those stats range from 0 to 999 in the code. They will never fall below 0 or go above 999.
 
 
 
With one exception, all situations causing the prompt to appear will fall in one of two categories:
 
Study and Exercise.
 
 
 
Either of those can be simply accessed by visiting the Running tracks for Exercise or the Library for Study.
 
 
 
The following prompts fall under the category Study:
 
* Lesson in Classroom
 
* Club time in Japanese Room
 
* Club time in Music Room
 
 
 
The remaining obviously fall into the Exercise category:
 
* Lessons outdoors
 
* Club time in Dojo
 
* Club time in Gym
 
* Club time outdoors
 
 
 
Finally, here is how Study and Exercise affect Intelligence and Strength respectively:
 
 
 
Studying:
 
* Work Hard!
 
** (Less Favorable) -4 Intelligence
 
** (More Favorable) +6 Intelligence
 
* Work Normally
 
** (Less Favorable) +2 Intelligence
 
** (More Favorable) +4 Intelligence
 
 
 
'''''ALL''''' results give -2 to Strength.
 
 
 
The reverse of this applies to Exercise.
 
 
 
Exercise
 
* Work Hard!
 
** (Less Favorable) -4 Strength
 
** (More Favorable) +6 Strength
 
* Work Normally
 
** (Less Favorable) +2 Strength
 
** (More Favorable) +4 Strength.
 
 
 
'''''ALL''''' results give -2 to Intelligence.
 
 
 
The exception:
 
 
 
The custom club type (other), which is performed in the multipurpose room, has a slightly different logic.
 
 
 
All 4 possible results affect both Strength and Wisdom by the same amount.
 
 
 
* Work Hard!
 
** (Less Favorable) -1 both
 
** (More Favorable) +2 both
 
* Work Normally.
 
** (Less Favorable) +/- 0 both
 
** (More Favorable) +1 both
 
 
 
===Gameplay Tips===
 
 
 
'''''NEVER EVER''''' choose "Work Hard!" when doing things without a partner or a group. Assuming the estimate split mentioned above, choosing "Work Hard!" for studying 100 times will give you -30 Wisdom and -200 Strength. However, choosing "Work Normally" will results in +274 Wisdom and -200 Strength.
 
 
 
Once you've reached the maximum of 999 points in both, it might be wise to switch to the (?) Club, as it makes keeping the balance easier. -2 for each stat are forced onto you once a day, twice for one if you're in any other club than the (?) one. At 999 each, you'll take -2 strength during the first lesson but you '''''WILL''''' be able to remedy it during the second lesson (since working normally yields at least +2 points). Then Study kind of club time will remedy the Wisdom with a +2, but -2 your strength again, basically swinging the balance back and forth. Having an Exercise based club will further imbalance your stats, keeping Strength at 999 but lowering Wisdom to at least 995.
 
 
 
Being in the (?) club will ensure that the imbalance at the end of the day is at most +/-2, at best +/-1, and if you do another round of club activity right after, you need just a single favorable result to be back at 999 for the rest of the evening and next morning.
 
 
 
Working with a partner or in a group completely removes the possibility for a less favorable result when working hard. As a result, it is safe to always pick "Work Hard!" when not working alone. (This obviously does not apply to lessons and mandatory club time.)
 
 
 
===Random Test Results===
 
Strength and Intelligence are crucial to exams, but the test results are greatly affected by randomness. This can be checked by the messages during the test. You won't get top grade under negative effect such as "you couldn't solve...", "you didn't failed but..." even if your Intelligence is maxed out. The same goes for NPCs; high intelligent students can also get poorer grades. If you're not satisfied with the result, loading pretest savegame can be a valid choice.

2. Same view in H

During H, toggle the - underscore/hyphen key - on the PC keyboard and the position of the character on the screen will not change when you repeat the same action. If you go to a different action, the action will be oriented to the placement of the floor in the last action. This is helpful if you want to repeat the same or similar action with the characters in a special screen position, or if you want to position the couple with the furniture in the Love Hotel or at Home.
