Summary0009310: Mercenaries physical attributes do not increase
DescriptionCurrently when you have Mercenaries in a squad training, they will gain the appropriate skills, but their physical traits do not increase. I've tested this with multiple mercenaries over multiple worlds.

Consistently dwarves will increase to "extremely muscular" or has "massive amounts of muscle", but the Mercenaries never improve past what they show up on the map with, which is unfortunate if you happen to have a fairly weak individual even though they are extremely skilled other wise.
Steps To ReproduceSimply set a mercenary to train with a dwarf squad, compared starting stats to their attributes years into training.
Additional InformationIs this intended? Are Mercenaries supposed to be unable to improve?
TagsNo tags attached.

Just checked — attributes do increase.
Goblin lasher mercenary had strength of 781, and after about 20 seconds his strength increased to 782.
