<div>[[Category:Game Mechanics]]<br />
A CEO will run investments for you so you don't have to click them anymore. The CEO does have some idle time between ticks. <br />
The time CEOs are idle/inactive depends on the level of the CEO.<br />
<br />
On the Game Help page in the [http://otwiki.moldygames.com/index.php?title=Game_Help#CEOs CEO paragraph] it says the following:<br />
''however the CEO will never be perfect, so you can still manually click on properties to make them run faster'',<br />
This is true, however on certain levels you won't notice it anymore because of the speed increases you will gain through achievements.<br />
<br />
==Formula==<br />
The formula used for the CEO idle time is Investment-Time / CEO level.<br />
Lets say a Gas royalties without achievements for speed increase takes 2 seconds to complete.<br />
If your CEO is level 1 this means the property will run, then it waits 2 seconds and it will run again.<br />
<br />
A few examples for the first 10 levels of the CEO. <br/><br />
'''In the examples the investments have no speedbonus.'''<br />

<br />
I don't have the proof for it yet but I'm pretty sure that the idle time is based on the investment time after speedbonusses and not base time.<br/><br />
While I was writing this I wasn't sure but finding out that a level 16 Saudi Field CEO should have an idle time of 2.5 minutes I can say for sure that my CEO isn't idle that long.</div>Crownie
