carrier market reputation

Hi,
I've just jumped into galactic sector three, and my excellent reputation (and income) as a carrier of precious metals and gemstones seems to have vanished: I'm not getting offered those 60,000 cr paycheques any more to deliver things.
Is this a game feature (ie, you need to build a reputation in each sector) or a bug in 1.72?
Thanks

I'v noticed that in 1.71.2 My contracts have been not as much as in 1.71.1. I failed one after I noticed this, So I just got up to 30,000 CR. I will just have fun working my way up, then
.
Don't panic: FSOneblin

Hm, odd... the same thing happened to me, when jumping into Galaxy 3, but running 1.68. Might there be some deep-seated weirdness here?

I think it’s supposed to happen.

My reputation went up pretty quickly after doing a few deliveries. Does one's legal status have any effect on value of contracts offered?

Nope.
And indeed, the peak of your good reputation is already reached after seven successful deliveries.

Does one's delivery reputation still change (like one's legal status does) when moving between galaxies?

Just jumped from the seventh into the eighth to check that, and my parcel courier rank (Elite) is unchanged.
Can't answer for cargo or passenger carrying, and my copy of the (original) OXP is somewhat butchered.

Thanks.
I thought that all three were vanilla game issues.
I can now update the
Communication wiki page.

I
think it was a core game issue, but I didn't start using the OXP 'til parcels were introduced, so don't know when/if it was fixed.

Does it matter?
I can't see an OXP changing inter-galactic reputation, so I presume that it is a matter of vanilla game coding.
So:
Jumping from one galaxy to another:
Credit rating is preserved.
Delivery Reputation is preserved.
(Il)Legal Status is lost.
Pretty bizarre, what?

As opposed to Bizaar, which is not pretty! A classic choke-point, is Bizaar - but poor agri/anarchies are good places to do business!
Pro tip: if you're going to jump to the next octant, take a holdful of narcotics with you!

Such doings will follow you if you have phkb's
BOUNTY SYSTEM OXZ in your ManagedAddOns Folder. Your Extremely Evil actions will follow you wherever you may roam if this nice piece of work is in use. That is until you pay your fines in one way or another. Be forewarned lest the Bounty Hunters catch up with you.
