About this mod
Gain extra faction reputation by sacrificing negotiation shares and/or balances reputation gain and loss in out-levelled conflict zones.
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
The game reduces the faction reputation gains when you complete low-difficulty contracts, but does not change the reputation loss. This punishes the player for taking contracts in lower-level zones, and its criteria for low-level are awful strict so it feels like late game you lose net reputation with every contract.
This mod can resolve the issue in multiple ways, by preference:
You will need to travel to new systems with no visible contracts to see the effects of the Loss Clamp/No Squish changes if the mods are installed mid-game, as the reputation rewards are built into the contracts when they are generated. Negotiated Gains will take effect immediately from the next mission you complete.
This mod can resolve the issue in multiple ways, by preference:
- Negotiated Gains: Unspent negotiation points give you bonus reputation gains on completion of the contract (up to +20, based on the proportion of available points unassigned. Less at <4 points available). It is thus a bit less costly to farm reputation from a faction which hates you.
- Loss Clamp: Reputation losses are reduced alongside the gains. Low level contracts will consistently award negligible (+/- 2) reputation changes with both factions. Can be combined with Negotiated Gains.
- No Squish: Reputation gains and losses are not modified by difficulty and use the default values (supposedly +/- 8 to 12; the game seems to always choose +/- 8 though). Can be combined with Negotiated Gains.
