Not sure what is going on, but I got a mission to kill some pirate faction deserters, and a bunch of them spawned as non wanted fighters and I got a bounty for killing them.
No problem, let me just get to Interstellar Factors and clear my name.
When I get there, IF don't show any bounty, while the admin shows I can turn myself in (I really don't want to be doing that in a Fed Vette with 15 LY jump range), and I made sure my notoriety is zero and i quit to main menu and nothing. No way to pay off my bounty.
In my desperation, I swapped to Horizons and what do you know. I CAN pay off my bounty there…
I have no idea why this is broken but it is what it is, and I love the new UI showing shield % rather than that weird getting fainter 3 lines thing so I have to keep swapping back and forth if I ever encounter this I guess…
