Reputation Equation

[Wcmille]

What is the reputation equation?

That is, if my reputation is R, and I gain x reputation, what will my new reputation be?
Same question goes for loss of reputation.

All I know is that it's relative, so the higher your Rep is, the harder it is to increase it.

Also, you can't ever actually reach max rep as far as I've heard?

Rep is so unimportant, I'm not sure anyone ever looked into it that deeply. Lol.

Irrelevant , unless the amount of likes your posts have received is important to you.

I mean in KSP, not the forums.

Rep goes from -1000 to 1000, and it's scaled so that 1 star of reputation = 1 reputation point when you are close to zero. Gaining reputation scales to zero asymptotically when you are close to 1000. Losing rep does the same near -1000.

You can go into the debug menu -- on the "cheats" page are some buttons you can click to add and subtract rep in specific amounts. You can just click the buttons and plot out the results. But I think it's based on an algorithm -- it's not strictly a function at all.
