Ranks, Trade Permits, Edicts: Limits & Requirements

[athios]

I notice that TP and Edicts seem to max out at "level" 4, but I haven't found a ceiling for Rank just yet. Do these keep going to 21 like in STRPG?

Rank is limited by Military rating of settlement.
Is TP limited by Economy or Trade Law?
Any requirements for Edicts?

I found a Faction Prince on an Indy Tradeway with only 2 Military (weak), but is able to offer Rank 6. Is this a bug?

Is it the case that Rank & Edict currently don't do anything as of 1.0.33?

21, yes.

Will try to get a WIKI page up in spare time.

Do edict's reduce the negative rep you will receive after running an op against the target faction.
