malachite base vendors all hate me all of a sudden

[Dweller Beyond the Threshold]

so I did this quest for the trader lady involving retrieving a flash disk, right after completing it, all vendor icons turned to red (they were all green before). The quest was given by the lady herself and she even thanked me when turning it in, so I dunno why it would destroy my reputation by doing it.

Any way to get it back to green? I already did all the quests there except one from Needle that I can't turn in because it's bugged.

Did you side with Spark? That's kind of what happens post-spark. Malachite will always hate you afterwards and there isn't a system yet where you can restore your reputation. They don't give radiant quests either anymore. Perhaps there will be a patch in the future to fix it, but in the mean time you're just kind of boned.

yeah I did side with Sparks but that was like 15 hours ago, and they were all green up until I did that side quest.
Doesn't the game say we can bribe the faction leader to restore reputation? How exactly do I do that or that's the thing you mentioned that isn't in place yet?

Yep, that's still the thing that's not in place yet unfortunately. I know it's written in the loading screen tips but it's just a thing that's not there.
