Cant find an answer using search thingys sorry if asked somewhere already.



What is used to create the :-
Traffic Report
Crime Report
Bounty Hunter Report
Top 5 is kinda self explanatory.

Is it Npcs in the crime report or just players ?
Does a player's ship get counted each time he visits a system ?
How often do these lists update and when ?

Any info would be very welcome on these local news report
Thanks.

Sorry to split this...foruming before coffee...not a good combo!
every time a player enters a system they get counted...intra-system entries do not count. (jumping 'up' from stations, etc.)

This updates daily on the BGS tick.

for an explanation and testing of crime- and bounty-report, see here:

How does the Crime Report works?

The Crime Report IS NOT
- a number for crimes committed by CMDRs

- the sum of all spawned bounties

- the sum of all bounties of CMDRs in that system...

The Crime Report lists the total of bounties and fines in the last 24 h (approx), which went into any CMDR’s left hand trasaction panel.

- if you shoot a WANTED ship with 150 K bounty of a controlling faction, 50 K bounty of a minor faction, and 100 K bounty of a major faction, this will count as 300 k in bounties into the crime report.

- if you get 60 K in bounties for shooting non-wanted ships, this will again count as 60 K in the crime report.

- if you gain a fine of 12 K for smuggling illegal goods, this will again count as 12 K into the crime report.

How does the Bounty Hunter Report work?

The Bounty Hunter Report IS NOT
- the number of shot wanted ships

- the total value of bountie claims, which a CMDR got by shooting wanted ships in that system

The Bounty Hunter Report lists

- the number of single Bounty Claim-Transactions per minor or major faction in the system. (When you hunted 20 wanted ships down, and you claim the bounty for all of them in one go, the Bounty Hunter Report will list it as “1 Bounty Claimed”)

- the total value of Bounty transactions in system

Which conclusions can you draw from Bounty Hunter Report and Crime Report?

Not a lot.

The Bounty Hunter Report and the Crime Report can tell you, if somebody is in the system without jumping in or out, but is cashing in Bounties (if you keep track of your own activities), or isn’t cashing in Bouties, but gaining Bounties or Bounty-Claims

If you see a huge difference between Crime Report total and Bounty Hunter Total, some of the following cases might be the reason:

a) someboy cashes in bounties from that system in another system (for exampel: he wants to push your minor faction in another system).

b) somebody is not cashing in any bounties (for exampel - those of the other minor factions, because he wants to help your major faction).

c) somebody is gaining a lot of bounties because he shoots non-wanted ships (for exampel ships of other minor factions than your controlling factions, because he wants to help)

d) someboy isn’t a good smuggler and gains heavy fines bringing in illegal tobacco in his anaconda.
