Points

Points are used to purchase units, improvements, buildings, wonders and actions. Points are gained weekly by completing aspirations, reaching the top of career tracks, and gaining skills. In addition, some improvements, buildings and wonders will add to your weekly point gain.

Aspirations
Points are awarded upon the completion of certain aspirations, listed under each point type. Keep track of which aspirations are completed during the week and award points at the end of your turn accordingly, multiplying it based on your current era multiplier. The base amount of points awarded per aspiration is 5.

Careers
Points are awarded upon reaching the top level of certain careers, listed under each point type. The point award for reaching the top of a career track can only be earned once per career for each sim, even if they get demoted and promoted again. Keep track of which careers are maxed during the week and award points at the end of your turn accordingly, multiplying it based on your current era multiplier. The base amount of points awarded for a full-length career is 5, and for a short career is 2.

Skills
To determine how many points are gained for skills, pick the highest skill in each of the five point categories and look it up on the table below. For example, let's say your sim has 4 fitness, 5 logic, 3 rocket science, 6 charisma, 8 piano and 8 violin. They will gain 3 Culture(from piano/violin, as it's a tie), 2 Diplomacy(from charisma), 1 Might(from fitness), 0 Production, and 2 Research(from logic). Compute this for each of your sims, add it together, and multiply it based on your current era multiplier.

Other Ways
Points are also earned from constructed improvements, buildings and wonders. See the individual pages for each construction for details. Please note that points earned from these ways are not to be multiplied by the era multiplier.
