The Dossier

Part two of the handbook. One card per feature, written as the file the police keep on you, or the file the family keeps on the city. This is where the exact rules and formulas live. Every number comes straight from the game.
Part one, the basics in plain language, is in the handbook.
Respect
What it is
On the street your name counts for more than your wallet. Respect isn't cash. Every cash payout gives 12% of the amount as respect. Above 8,000 it grows more slowly: the gain times 8,000 divided by your current respect, with a minimum of one. You start with 250. The leaderboard sorts on it.
Where to find it
In the HUD, on Players, and the milestones on Prestige.
How it works
Every cash payout raises your respect by 12% of the cash, then the soft curve above 8,000. A flat respect bonus on a murder stays flat.
There are 18 milestones, from 1,000 to 500,000 respect.
The first milestone pays $200. The last pays $55,000 and 80 influence.
You claim a milestone that's ready yourself. Soft prestige remembers which ones you already claimed.
Costs, returns and limits
You can claim each milestone once, and it doesn't count toward the season score.
