Salvage Op Alternative Destination

[Esteban]

I'm performing some salvage ops (black box salvage operations). Occasionally I get a message offering a reward if I transport the salvage to a different destination (different star system and port).
I can accept or decline. I want the INF reward to benefit the faction in the system where I accepted the mission.

If I deliver the items to the alternate destination, does the INF-benefit move from the system where I accepted the mission?

Does declining the offer impact things in another way?

Does declining the offer impact things in another way?

In general, in my experince. you get more rewards (credits/INF) if you ignore those offers and stick to the mission. Unless you really like that faction (criminals) that are making the offer and want to gain REP with them.

Yes. It will move to whoever is making the offer, in the system they've asked you to take it.

Note: not all wrinkles are necessarily for a different faction. Most are though.

Does declining the offer impact things in another way?

Nope. They were made optional when people complained about mandatory wrinkles changing their mission fundamentally.

in case of same faction, different system for a mission wrinkle ... the influence effect at mission source doesn't change, but the influence effect at mission target changes.
