VIG/FAF leak probability

Post by jlehtone » Sun, 16. Apr 23, 13:04

Changelog wrote:
  • Added extra Signal Leak missions for factions foreign to station owner, allowing player to earn reputation for Vigor Syndicate at Teladi stations and for Fallen Families at Free Families stations.
What are the odds, strings, and percussions of that?
  • Regular factions do not offer missions when you have healthy hate relationship. Are the leaks off the table too, i.e. no redemption for the foe?
  • Behind how many blue moons one should peek before joining the "RNG hates me!" cult?

~ and for Fallen Families at Free Families stations.
I am so glad you brought this topic up, I totally missed that entry in the changelog .. I now have a new objective, previously I gave up on FAF ever being possible friends.

Fair. The first 6-7 seven leaks on FRF stations were all Data Leaks so I almost wondered if there are any Signal Leaks.
There are.

Quite soon even a FAF mission. My FAF reputation is -16. We have a "yes", at least at that hostility the missions do appear.

The simple Haul Passenger to another Station did yield 0.001 repo points (improved rep from -0.0467664 to -0.0457664). Still -16.


Funny thing. I had just docked to pick up the passenger. The fence to landing pad did not open. :o
Save game. Load game. The gate was now open and I could walk to the station ...


[EDIT] The frequency of FAF missions seems to be very comfy. (-0.0303664 is in -15)

"Very frequent", I'd say, although subjectively. Some 30% to 50% of scanned signal leaks seem to be from FAF on FRF stations.

Got FAF reputation to +10 (relation="0.0110336"). No more plunder ...

Also, uncovered many black marketeers.
