	I have an operative that hires an agent. at the bottom of the page it says he has , say, 50% chance of hire w/o capture. So he hires an agent. Lets call him steve. At the bottom of Steves update, it says he has 100% chance of being picked up, 100% chance of being dropped off, and 82% chance of hiring an agent...all without being captured. But an agent can't be picked up or dropped off nor may they hire another agent. These things should not be listed as options on an update, if they are not, indeed, options. Recently I wasted some tus and a whole day because my agent, who had a 91% chance of hiring an agent, received as results, that agents couldn't hire agents. Is this a bug, or should the agents update style be redone? as a personal favor, could you please wire me your answer at cdr_jack_ryan@c-lawrence-images.us (just as a favor, thanks) this is important due to the type of operations we may be carrying out. clif

	Agents cannot be hired by Agents, nor can they be picked up or dropped into position. Agents are key personnel within the starbase that are 'subverted' to do your bidding through the promise of stellars. They do not have the specialized training of Operatives. So in answer to your question, the update should probably be reworked. The current one is a template that uses the information from the skills section to generate the chances of success/failure.
