- Every N pirates killed in a system (default 10) grants +1 standing to all settlements in that system, configured via data/reputation.json bonuses.pirateKills
- Track per-system kill tallies as registry-backed run state, persisted through SaveData.js capture/prepare/reset with normalization and legacy-save fallback
- Wire the payout into GameScene.recordPirateKill, called from CombatSystem's onKill seam, clamping at max standing and showing a toast when at least one place moves
- Add reputation tests covering the milestone data shape, standing writes, save round-trip, garbage-entry rejection, legacy-load, and New Game reset
- Add `bonuses` config (sideQuest 10%, perGoodSold 2%) to reputation.json
- Implement `Reputation.creditFraction()` with sub-point pending credit that pays out whole points across multiple sales
- Wire GameScene to award the issuer's standing on side-quest claim and on goods sold in the shop
- Serialize/deserialize pending credits through save/load round-trip
- Add tests covering crediting, clamping, home-world pinning, and save round-trip
- Introduce Reputation module (js/reputation/Reputation.js) tracking player standing on planets and space stations on a −20…+20 scale, with the home world pinned at +20
- Add data/reputation.json config for scale bounds, neutral default, and home-world standing
- Assign stable seed-deterministic ids to planets (<systemId>-p<ordinal>) and settlements (<systemId>-s<n>) in SystemGenerator so saved standing lines up with regenerated galaxies
- Wire reputation into the save system (captureState/prepareLoad/resetRunState) with backward-compatible loading of pre-reputation saves as all-neutral
- Add faction-check placeholder: standingFor() resolves home → stored → owner/faction → neutral, with factionStanding() stubbed for the upcoming factions layer
- Register a single Reputation instance in GameScene via the shared registry (same pattern as Discovery)
- Add dev/reputation.test.mjs covering scale clamping, home pinning, serialization round-trips, legacy/corrupt record handling, save integration, and place-id stability
