In my standings, I have:
"Purkkoken Honuken 9.04 (Connections 1 raises your standing from 9.00)"
However the Connections skill is supposed to be a 4% increase. So if my standing is 9.00, adding 4% should make it 9.36, not the reported 9.04.
From the description of Connections, I'm not sure it's even supposed to apply to the agent himself, it reads "agent corporation" - but - since my character sheet says it's improving my agent standing, it appears to be calculating wrong.

The social skills, and standing increases, work as a "difference."
With connections level 5, at 0.0 lvl 5 you will have 2.0 (10.0 - 20%). At 5.0 you will have 6.0 (5 - 20%). So If you have connections 5, and have a standing of ~8.4 you will have a base standing of ~8.0.
This diminishing returns system means that you can get from 0.0 to 5.0 fairly quickly, but the higher it is, the more of a grind it is.
Also, standing REDUCTIONS are inversed. They are the difference to -10. So failing a mission with a 9.9 standing, at a 10% standing loss, you just got bumped to 7.91 (which is actually several months of mission running lost in most cases).

Working exactly as intended then.
Pretty much all skills and modules that affect by percentages affect the remaining amount between the current level and maximun level. The maximum standing possible is 10.0 so its 4% of 1.00 standing which equals 0.04 :)
Same thing happens with armor and shield hardeners on resistances

Ok, that makes sense. I wasn't aware it was the difference between current and max.
Thanks
