Ok, so I'm trying a bit of this researching melarky to get myself some datacores, great. My problem is this - I have a mechanical engineering agent giving me 25.5 points per day - they are level 3, quality 1. I then have a minmatar starship engineering agent, again, level 3 but -18 quality, giving me 54, and a -13, again, level 3, giving me 58 points per day. What's going on? both skills research skills are level 2 (and yes I'm going to take them higher) so how come the -18 and -13 are giving me so much more rp/day?

ok, I hadn't twigged that they ask for different amount of rp's to provide a datacore
Also -
So to answer your question, your discrepancy comes from the fact that (Racial) Starship Engineering is a field with a x3 multiplier
where do you get this field multiplier number from?
edit:
Thanks btw!

Good question  from what I recall you can see it on the agent info after you ave chosen a research field with a multiplier.
Another factor that can give odd RP out is if you have increased your skill or your agent quality and you haven't still visited him. Even if the RP are given out at the right rate, the amount of RP/day under research will display the old value till you visit the agent (but, to repeat it, the RP are given out at the correct, increased rate, it is only a display bug).
I was about to call foul on the negotiations affecting the rate, but, when I went "show info" on the agent, it magically pinged up in the journal!

Effective Quality formula:
Base_Quality + (5 * Negotiations_Lvl) + (1 if Connections = 3 or 4, 2 if Connections = 5)
doesn't social have something to do with it as well?
