Edited by: Spatula Fishslice on 27/12/2007 23:17:57 Edited by: Spatula Fishslice on 27/12/2007 23:17:32 Hi,
When I look on the standings tab of a non-NPC corp, then the relationship tab there is sometimes a section at the bottom called 'Derived Standing'. I'm not quite clear on what this means - is it the standing the this corp has set to me? It seems that it might be since it I've only seen it on corps that should have a non-neutral standing set to my corp, but I've seen nothing explicit on the subject so I'm only guessing.
Any clarification would be appreciated.
Thanks

Derived standings for NPC corps are because of the different factions ...
If you run missions for Corp A (say, Aliastra, which likes the Gallente Federation faction), and they have you shoot Corp B's ships (say, Amarr Navy, which likes the Amarr faction) ... then you'll eventually get derived standings that are positive for all corporations that are part of the Gallente Federation and derived standings that are negative for all corporations that are part of Amarr ...
You can see the extent of these pros/cons to derived standings by looking at the factions and seeing how much the different corps like/dislike the various factions on the "show info" for each corp.

Edited by: Daelin Blackleaf on 28/12/2007 16:48:08 This is false.
The relationship tab shows your faction standing (as derived from storylines missions and ships of that faction killed) and corporation standing (as derived from missions completed or failed).
The derived standing attribute is tied to your empire of birth and seems to have no in-game effect.
For example my Amarr Faction standing is currently 2.3, my Carthum Conglomerate Standing 6.66, but my derived standing is -2.0 which is the Amarr's standing towards the Gallente. This number is the same for all corps belonging to the same empire. It appears to serve no function.
Derived standing refers to the entry in standing logs when a storyline mission boosts standing to one faction. As a result of gaining standing with this faction you gain standing with it's allies and lose standing with it's enemies proportionate to the standing they hold the empire in, which can be found under the liked by tab of the empire you run the mission for.
[EDIT: To clarify derived standings have nothing to do with individual corporations. You can kick the living hell out of the Federation and still keep a good standing with the corporations within it. Though once you reach -2 to the faction I believe agents will refuse to talk to you.]

Thank you for clarifying, I neglected to say it was only the storyline (important) missions that would affect derived standings. They will, however, wreak havoc on your standings with other corps when you do those storyline missions *against* another faction ... I've had to do a lot of missions to repair the effects of "derived" messes from some of those missions.

Faction not corp, but otherwise yes.
When I switched from Gal and Min to Cal and Amarr (for RP reasons) I had to manually trash my corp standings by turning down missions because they do not fall via derived standings or through mission NPC kills.
