JHarkrider Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 (edited) (I tried submitting a customer service ticket ingame but the list is not updating, so I'm not sure if I was successful. Also, I believe they removed the bug report section of the forums, I can't seem to locate it) I recently sent one of my companions to do the diplomacy mission called "Just Remember Everyone's Name". The mission was a failure, but still gave me a few (bugged) light side points. It also messed up my dark side points (I previously had zero). Screenshot - http://imageshack.us/f/684/screenshot2011121822112.jpg/ Players, you may wish to avoid this particular mission (it's in the level 17-24 range).

Safewayundrwear Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Same here. I'm almost maxed on light side now and it hasn't changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHarkrider Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 Same here. I'm almost maxed on light side now and it hasn't changed. Was it caused by the same mission? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHarkrider Posted December 19, 2011 Author Share Posted December 19, 2011 I suppose I'll just make an alt until this whole thing gets sorted. Like I said, I'd rather not continue leveling if there's a risk of messing things up even further. If anyone else has had this issue, or knows a solution, please share.

Akella Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Same thing happened to me from diplomacy crew skill missions. Only I was working on dark side points, and it gave me 1.38475759434767658595 light side points. Eventually it wore off and I now have 0 light side and 10000 dark side.

I was wondering if it would correct itself if I hit the cap, but I was unsure if there even was one. My main concern is the presence of dark side points, I don't want any at all, I was quite happy with my zero. If that gets sorted at cap also, I suppose I don't have much to worry about. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLaggyOne Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Having the exact same issue. Made it to level 28 with absolutely no dark side points and then a diplomacy mission screwed me and gave me a number very, very similar to yours.

I don't want to risk messing things up further, but I'd like to continue leveling up soon. Thank you. That is actually working as intended heh.

ryancwn Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) Same here. I'm almost maxed on light side now and it hasn't changed. It won't start reducing the DS point until you reach 10000 LS point. Then any gain in LS will remove the same amount from the DS and you will reach 10000LS and 0 DS eventually. The bigger problem I think from the OP is he suddenly gaining DS point on a failed mission which would screw up many LS player. (The amount gain is minimal but still) Edited January 13, 2012 by ryancwn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chalkwhite Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) Same thing happened to me. Doesn't matter to me. I think it's funny more than anything. Maybe we've just been ever-so slightly dark. Edited January 13, 2012 by chalkwhite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bdatik Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 The bigger problem I think from the OP is he suddenly gaining DS point on a failed mission which would screw up many LS player.

Thanks for sharing. Theres a cap, which is 10000 for DS or LS. Once you reach the cap, any further alignment gain will remove points from the opposite side.

ryancwn Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) He gained 9.7513198.... dark side points. Yes, I edit my posted after I realise the mistake. But then, a failed mission giving you points on the other side, I'm not sure if thats a bug or working as intended (the point gain is nothing as it will be reverse by doing another mission once you reach the cap) Edited January 13, 2012 by ryancwn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luuma Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 same thiong. But at dark V you will reach 10000 because its capped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiwan Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) He gained 9.7513198.... dark side points.He did not. He gained 9.7513198...e-005 dark side points which would be 0.000097513198 dark side points. Edited January 13, 2012 by Aiwan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHarkrider Posted January 14, 2012 Author Share Posted January 14, 2012 (edited) Didn't realize this thread was still active. He gained 9.7513198.... dark side points. Actually, the dark side points shown are entirely cosmetic, no dark side points were actually given. Upon receiving a second mission failure (which must also have a non-whole number amount of alignment points) the dark side points display properly at zero. It switches on and off as mission failures continue happening. One failure will bug the points, and the next failure fixes the points (eg. light side mission failures will improperly display an amount of dark side points, and the next light side mission failure will cause the dark side points to display properly).

Shillen Posted January 14, 2012 Share Posted January 14, 2012 Everyone who has diplomacy has this. I've gotten x.xxxxxxxxxxxxx points for many different missions. It happens when you fail a mission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
