More Testing:
I tested with Arjun the Jedi correspondant and another person who is a BH on TC and a Jedi on live. I was Neutral MBH, and he was a rebel investigation 3.
Here is what we did. First step was to get Arjun on the terminals. Yes, there definetely is a change to visibility. It took Arjun a very long time in Kaadara killing STs to finally make it on the terminals.
Second test was to check whether a Neutral and a Rebel BH could target him. The answer was yes. So, that is fixed on the TC.
Third was to release a seeker. Same speed as the NPC missions, and very accurate when Arjun was standing still and of course a bit off when he was moving.
Next was test of off-planet status. I asked Arjun to leave the planet, and he did. Bug number 1. The seeker kept on updating where he was in the starport instead of giving me the "your quarry has left the planet message". Of course I could not launch an Arkydn as I was already tracking him with a seeker. Once the seeker lost track, I was able to launch and fly to Corelia.
Fourth test was to have Arjun incap me and check the patch changes. He did and I lost the mission from my data pad. He also got a message saying that he had spoiled a bounty attempt. The other BH still had the mission and the mission stayed on the terminals. All working as intended.
Finally, the last test was for me to DB Arjun. I went and got another missionand I was able to incap him and then DB. I checked the terms, and he no longer was on the terminals. So, no killing the same Jedi over and over.
applause go to all 3 of you. i think we need an option to abort the droid searches if we need to. but i do not like the incap = losing the mission. it should be moved to the jedi killing the BH. while some would say this would be the same thing cause the next logical move would be a deathblow, IT IS NOT. alot can happen when a player is incapped. say for instance the jedi is aggro'd by a lair. now trying to make this seem as "real" as possible, the BH who is incapped is basically unconscious, but is not dead. and why would he stop hunting his prey just cause he got knocked out for a bit. the jedi is fighting the mob trying to stay alive.i say (in my best johnny cochran voice)
"If there's no DEATHBLOW, the missionmust still show."
i think both profs should get badges, BH's for kills and Jedi for "foils"
Its really cool that Bounty Hunters and jedi can work together. Great Job to all 3 of you. You guys really put in alot time for this and I really hope the community at large respects and appreciates you. I know I do.

Please test the whole BH vs Jedi as best as possible before it goes live
OOPS!
Didn't see the post about the test (but I still wouldn't mind a FS)

This is where potential problems would arise. Two BH's who work together with one doing the hunting and the other waiting at the clone center.
