[Starfinder] How do I add fame and reputation for my non-starting faction?
 

I have tried selecting an alternate faction and I have tried selecting equipping an alternate champion boon. Neither seem to have an effect and I always end up adding reputation with my starting faction.

Nevermind, submit a bug.

If you are looking to add the additional reputation sometimes rewarded with a specific scenario, I have found this to be a two-step process. I first award fame, reputation, credits with my slotted faction and make sure that is credited fully, then I edit that journal and change the faction and add only reputation (and maybe additional credits from other sources). It will initially look like it is not crediting the specific faction but once I go all the way through it shows up correctly.

First, on the Character/Profile tab, have you added the new faction? You won't be able to record fame for something until there's a place in HL to store it.

The value you put in "Fame and reputation awarded" will be placed in the faction of the currently slotted champion boon.

The value you put in "Reputation Awarded" will be placed in the faction you set for "Faction for reputation awarded" - if the issue is that there's only one faction to select from in "Faction for reputation awarded", then add more factions on the Character/Profile tab.

So, for example, on one of my own characters, for Yesteryear's Truth, I entered "Wayfinders" in "Faction for reputation awarded", 1 in "XP amount", 2 in "Fame and reputation awarded", 588 in "Credits", and 1 in "Reputation awarded" (because of the scenario's faction tag)

There is a faction (sort of new?) that gets 1 rep from a faction that may not necessarily be slotted at the time. The character gets this even though he has not gotten the faction boon by spending the fame. (this is from the special ran at Paizocon and Gen Con)

May I get a link to this new material please?

Whenever I switched the dropdown to the faction I wanted, it would still end up going to whatever faction I was currently equipped with, which made it impossible to add faction to anything other than the currently equipped faction.

Same for me. It only goes to my 'main' faction.

This probably requires a reply if there is any sort of official rule.

Well, given this:
...it's from the Chronicle sheet for SFS 1-99: The Scoured Stars Invasion. Some day (when Paizo's website is working) that link might work. New Specials are usually not available for purchase though.
