About this mod

Unused negotiation points give bonus reputation. Similar to the Reasonable Reputation Rewards mod.

Permissions and credits
This mod is similar to the Reasonable Reputation Rewards mod that is no longer working.  Bonus reputation is gained for unused negotiation points.

  • RepMod_NegotiatedGain_Option:  (Configurable Options)  Unused negotiation points are used for increased reputation gain with the employer.  Customizable with (Bobbert's Mod Options).  There are four options for standard reputation gain in lower level areas [Game Default (~ +2/-8), Loss ~= Gain (~ +2/-2), Remove Gain Penalty (~ +8/-8) and Max Gain/Reduce Loss (~ +8/-2)].  Bonus reputation can be gained using unspent negotiation points.  This feature can be configured and turned off and on using game options. Defaults to an unmodifiable stand-alone version  (configured like RepMod_NegotiatedGain) without Mod Options (Will retain configuration if Mod Options is removed unless the game.ini file is removed or edited).

Default configuration gives a maximum of +20 rep points for 15 negotiation points.  Rep points are divided evenly between max negotiation points.   The numbers are rounded so in this case 1 unused negotiation point = (1.33) 1 rep point, 2 = (2.66) 3 rep points, 4 = (4) 4 rep points, etc.  You can adjust the max rep points available (up to 100) and the max negotiation points required for 100%.  So if you set the Max Reputation From Unspent Negotiation Points to 100 and the Negotiation Points Required for Max Rep to 1, you would only need 1 unused point to get +100 rep (not recommended).


You will need to refresh the contracts by traveling to a different area to enable the Loss Clamp/No Squish part of the mod.  The negotiation part will take effect immediately.




There are two previous stand-alone versions (only recommended if you are not using any other mods)

  • RepMod_NegotiatedGain:  (Negotiated Gains/Loss Clamp)  Unused negotiation points are used for increased reputation gain with the employer (up to +20).  More effective as more points are used for reputation.  Also changes the reputation loss to be on par with the reputation gained when playing in lower level areas. Example: +2/-2 instead of +2/-8

  • RepMod_NegotiatedGain_NoLoss:  (Negotiated Gains/No Squish)  Unused negotiation points are used for increased reputation gain with the employer (up to +20).  More effective as more points are used for reputation.  Also Removes the reputation
    gain penalty for playing in lower level areas.  Example: +8/-8 instead of +2/-8
