>>Is/could there be a way to tell how bad your reputation is? Don't mean it to be as descriptive as "You should expect your fine to be 5x your warrant amount with a guilty plea", but something like "recall/warrant reputation" returning something like.. "You are considered at large/an uncommon criminal/a disturber of the peace/a lawless SOB in the city/province of <blah>".


Let me think about it. Because of the way decay works this wouldn't be as simple as you might think.

I will reiterate that over time the MASSIVE spike in fines some people will see will normalize out since decay will actually work now, but it's going to take some time.

>>Is this going to punitively punish thieves?

It was specifically intended not to. In the short term? Yes. They're going to have a ton of priors and that's going to blow their fines up a fair bit. In the long run, once decay is able to smooth things out it'll be much better for them than the current system.
