(POST EDITED AFTER PATCH)
We just implemented a server side fix to a few agent woes. We appologize for any inconvenience that they may have caused. The fixes include:
- The bug which caused agents to refuse to admit a player completed a mission is fixed. This happened if the player completed the mission on a separate node than his agent is on.
- All players who lost standing since the Castor patch have been reimbursed with the standing they lost. Players who gained standing or have the same amount of standing are unaffected by this change.
- The time bonus rewards for agent missions were handing out far too lucrative rewards for about a day after the Castor patch was implemented, due to a bug. The super-rewards some people recieved, such as blueprints, will be morphed into blueprint copies or switched to the appropriate reward.

Are there any plans to help players who have lost agents (and MONTHS of work) due to this unforeseen issue?

quick workaround: relog after mission completion and before returning to base, also ;: return to base and then complete the mission by leaving the stuff at base the agent asked for it at and no bugs occur --------------------------------------------

Wether you get a new one or not, the previous will be counted as failed. Thus if you did 10 missions you got a standing drop 10 times... :(

Quote: - Agent NPC kill mission did not drop the mission loot. This has been fixed already on TQ via a hotfix. This was not occuring alot due to the multi-node setup on Tranquility, and since our test servers usually do not have such a setup, or if they do it's much much smaller than on Tranquility, then this was not spotted until the patch went out unfortunately.
Its 20:50 GMT+2 here and the server Tranquility is rebooting. Just before the reboot I tryied a NPC kill mission and well I can say it is still b0rked in pator system.

Will our standings get restored?
Will anything be done about the flood of skills/blue prints that have already been farmed off the bugged agent rewards? |

I have a only one question!
1) Is CCP going to give all of use our Agent 3 LVL status back seeing how this horrible error was your fault, and only your fault?
I already have a post that explains how I feel about this horrible error. Please go to this thread to read what I wrote yesterday. http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=48216
Thank you in advance for answering my question.

In game news says :
Those players who encountered the complete mission bug and lost standing due to this will be reimbursed after the patch which fixes the problem. So if you lost some standing due to this situation, you will recieve it back soon enough. Please refrain from petitioning about this issue, as we are going to deal with this on a global scla,e and not case by case through peitions!
YAY!!!

Wierd. I tested them a bit on Tranq myself and they were working fine for me. Was this an old mission? If you can reproduce this again then let me know.

Will facvtion be automatically reimbursed or do we need to petition for each case where we lost faction?

At 22:05 I did an Agent NPC Kill mission and the NPC's failed to drop the item I was supposed to bring back to my agent. The misson was called "Damsel in distress", I had to kill Krull and 2 henchmen in Luminaire for my lvl 2 Roden agent in Aporulie and bring back 1 unit of The Damsel, I got 10 Thunderbolts, 100 A-M M Ammo and 10 Defender missiles instead.

I just had a broken (lvl3 ammatar) mission:
The Rogue Slave Trader =======================
Mission briefing: ----------------------- As you undoubtedly know, we embrace the slave trade within our borders. However, even in such innocent activities there reside criminals. We discovered one such criminal recently, who is in fact working for the Sanshas Nation. For months he has been selling our law abiding citizens nothing but disease ridden, useless slaves for overblown prices! Not only are his methods a blatant breach of our sacred laws, he is also spreading various diseases throughout our territory through the wretched slaves he has sold to his unwitting customers. This show of disrespect and greed must come to an end this instant! I request that you intercept this slave trader convoy as it leaves one of the planets in Nikh. I will give you the approximate coordinates if you accept this mission. Capture the slaver himself and bring him to me for his due punishment. Also, we believe there are Ammatar hostages on board, bring them to me as well. And please make up your mind a.s.a.p., the slaver will not wait for your arrival.
Objectives ----------------------- To complete the mission, the following must be performed by you: one Prisoners must be provided at Salashayama VII - Moon 8 - Ammatar Fleet Logistic Support one Slaver must be provided at Salashayama VII - Moon 8 - Ammatar Fleet Logistic Support one Sansha's Underlord and one Sanshas Transport Ship must be destroyed in Nikh
Rewards ----------------------- Upon completing the mission, the following will be awarded to you: 62500 credits
Bonus Rewards ----------------------- The following bonuses may be awarded to you: 33000 credits - would have been yours if you had completed the mission before 2003.12.18 03:18
I set destination to bookmark, go there, warp to them and kill the 2 rats. They drop 46 slaves, 1 slaver and 1 prisoner (might be several, I'm not sure). I go back to my agent (Hegnedan Aldelrind), and asks for the reward. She takes the prisoner(s) and then tells me I need to bring them (prisoners) back to finish the mission.
I will have to wait for the mission to expire, and loose faction :(

That rogue slave trader mission is fixed but the fix isn't on tranq as of right now (will be put in during the downtime probably tomorrow). It was using a feature that was bugged and somehow slipped by us.
However you are able to quit the mission, you do not need to wait for it to expire. Simply speak to your agent and tell him that you wish to quit the mission, he will offer you a new one (with a slight standing loss though, but waiting for it to expire would also have a standing loss).
