Is there a known problem with DisplayReputation?

[Obsidian]

Hey, I recently completed a really huge cargo contract for gold. I go from 240,000 or so creds up to 420,000, but my Trader rep goes from Magnate(better than 300,000 profit) to -(that's MINUS!!!)500,000 profit and the discrepancy is bothering me. I lost part of the gold consignment to damage en route, but bought up gold at stations and rock hermits to make up the difference(and a heavy dose of actual piracy, yes I'll admit it ); this would eat into profits, sure, but I can't wind up with -500,000 trade profit while my actual balance increases from 240,000 to 420,000. I'm perplexed.

1.) What's gone wrong?

2.) What do I edit to fix it? (my trader reputation... don't maintain the old saves to go back before my payday)

Barring advice here, my only option is to uninstall [wiki]DisplayReputation[/wiki], but I took such pride in my "Magnate" status after missing out on as much trade profit before adding it.

P.S. I assume Discussion is the right place for this? Didn't see any bug report type posts in Expansion sub-forum and I assumed the bug-report sub-forum is for core issues.

DisplayReputation just display the reputation values handled by the core game, uninstalling it does not change anything but you will not see your values.

Thanks for the info, although I'm still perplexed by what happened. If I incurred a loss that dropped my trade figures to -500,000 then I should have had a negative bank balance, but it was 420,000 or so.

Trade profit tracking is not handled by the core game at all, though. I'm not sure this one is DisplayReputation - there was another OXP which tracked trade profits and I vaguely remember at least an early version of it having a bug where it didn't take cargo allocated to contracts into account properly. (I can't remember which one, though)

Obsidian: there'll be a mission variable in your save game which stores the profit data - if you post the OXP loading section of your Latest.log file it might help us track down which one.

It's Market Observer OXP. I'm on it.

Thanks cim, spara's nailed the culprit.
