A few questions

[nschafer]

1. When in the news console I often see things like:
Contracts are being offered to eliminate N.I.N, who is rumored to be in the area. I was wondering is there a way to hunt down the individuals wanted? If so, how?

2. I am frequently multitasking while playing the game. and sometimes forget exactly what the contract I accepted was for. For example am I to find an item or retrieve it. OK, I know that with that example, once I'm close enough to retrieve it I'll see the mission completed message if it was a find contract, but is there a way to see what your currently accepted contract is, along with the coordinates that it gave you. I sometimes also accept a contract to deliver cargo and when I go to the coordinates cannot find the transport ship.

3. I was in a system with a reputation of Moderate. I performed a number of contracts and had Energy and Navy up to 100%, Rebels were at 0% , guild was about 30% and Miners somewhere around 70%. I completed a contract for the Navy and my reputation went to Fair. What I found interesting was that the levels for the different factions changed drastically at that point. The energy and navy went down into the 60s , Rebels and Guild were in the 50s, and Miners were still in the 70s. Is this normal, why would the change in your overall reputaion effect the individual levels like that?

Thanks

1 - Only via the contract (the biggest ship there being the representative of that targeted individual).

2 - Click on 'Current Contract' in the inventory console to view the details. The waypoint is locked when you accept it and should not be changed, otherwise, you may lose track of where you were told to go. If you take too long, or the contract is less reliable, you may find the capital ship departs before you get there, or the information was faulty and no ship will be waiting.

3 - Yes, normal, it's a tiered system representing indications of when your reputation will switch next. An 80% positive in a Fair system is better than a 95% positive in a moderate system. Details here (and in the instructions):

Thanks for the quick reply. Reading through the posts in the link you provided I thought of another question though. There's always another question isn't there? Basically what affect does accepting bribes have on your reputation. If you accept a bribe from the rebels, do they like you more and the navy less, or does it have any effect?

Yes....bribing and doing contracts with the Rebels and Guild will change your reputation. They are the shady side of Evochron and will have a negative impact on your Reputation. Working contracts with the other 3 factions will create a positive impact on your reputation.

Note: "Accepting bribes from the Rebels and Guild will also change your reputation"

Enjoy and have a Great time in Evochron Renegades .
