GC Squadrons - some info on training and point reallocation

[Niwashi]

I'm putting together a program to calculate what combination of training is needed to reallocate points, and needed info on some edge cases. Now that some experimentation has given me the info, I thought I'd share it in case others are doing the same:

Training that normally gives points to one or two stats will either give the full allotment of points or nothing at all. For instance, if you do training that would normally subtract 40 points from stat A and divide it out as 20 points to each of the others, then doing that training when stat A starts with only 20 points has no effect on stats at all. It does not take the available 20 points and divide it out as 10 and 10, but acts just like the comprehensive training that doesn't allocate stats.

Training can, however, adjust the number of points subtracted from a stat based on where points are available. If you have 0 points in one stat (and plenty in a second stat) and do training that would normally subtract 20 from each in order to give 40 to the third stat, the training will instead subtract 40 from the second (twice as much as normal) in order to give the normal 40 to the third.

You get training points every time you rank up. If you have used them all then the only thing you can do is shuffle them between different stats.
You cannot add or deduct from the total amount of stats you have while shuffling - your math must be wrong.
Do note that it clearly states how many stat points you have in total and how many you have used

Yes, this is purely for when shuffling stats, after you've reached the total allowable for your current rank. The math is correct for that situation.

When you've just ranked up and have additional points available to allocate (without subtracting them from another) then they can always be added as normal.

Aha, I think I missunderstood your earlier statment.
To be honest for the most part i keep my stats fixated and shuffle my team members to meet mission requirments - rather than retraining their stats
