Question on gaining perks. ( Possible Bug)

+
So I'm pretty sure originally I was getting a perk point when I leveled, and also when I got skill level increases. However tonight when I was playing ( post hotfix patch) it appears I was only getting perks for character levels, not skill levels. However when I did raise a skill it would show the perks screen option ( z) but I would not have gained a perk point. Is there a skill level cap where you stop gaining perk points or is my gamed bugged out?

Thanks!
 
not all skill levels give perks, did the skill you leveled show that it gave a perk as a bonus for that level up?
 
Last night I was seeing skill up messages for Stealth, Cold Blooded, Riffles, and Crafting for sure ( maybe others but those are ones I'm certain of) however I did not gain perks for any of them. The only perks I gained were 3 for the character levels I gained.

I just tested it this morning. I leveled up my pistol skill, and didn't get a perk point. I gained a character level and gained a perk point. So unless I'm misunderstanding how skills and perk points are gained, it appears to be broken for me.

So I decided to make a new character and test to see if perks would work as expected, and they did. I leveled up handguns and it gave me a perk, I leveled up crafting and it gave me a perk. So I swapped back to my main character and I leveled up stealth and this time it gave me a perk point. So I'm assuming some how this character got bugged out, and loading a new/different one corrected it. However even though my original seems to be working correctly, at least for the moment, he has missed out on about 8-10 perks that he should have gained. So unless it somehow corrects itself, he's partially gimped.
