Here are three different screenshots of the same character at the same level, with the same attributes and equipment, taken seconds apart in different locations in Tarant:

1) Near the magical shops, note the Tech aptitude of 28:

2) Near the technological shops, note the Tech aptitude of 38:

I have played Arcanum many times in the past, but it is the first time I have noticed this variation in the magick/tech meter based on location. How is this explained? Is being near a technological object/character increases your own aptitude as well?
