About this mod

This mod comes in three versions, all of which do two things: 1. Reduces the amount of NPC"s (moderately to significantly) on your Freighter Base. 2. Restricts NPC's from spawning in certain parts of your freighter base such as: Teleport Room, Storage Rooms, and Fleet Command Rooms. You can now have your very own private Freighter Command Quarters.

This is my first mod. :-) Got the inspiration from Livelier Freighter Base mod, and figured going in the opposite direction would serve to (potentially) help with performance on Freighter Bases (especially big ones); as well as making certain Freighter Base rooms private to add to the NMS experience. 

This mod comes in three distinct versions, all of which do two things:

1. Reduces the amount of NPC"s (moderate / significant / zero) on your Freighter Base.

  • Moderate: Reduced from 24 Total NPC's to 10 Total - Only Squadron and Frigate Captains will spawn. 
  • Significant: Reduced from 24 Total NPC's to 4 Total - Only Squadron will spawn.
  • Zero: No NPC's at all on your Freighter Base (best for performance / big freighter bases)


2. Restricts NPC's from spawning in certain parts of your freighter base such as: Teleport Room, Storage Rooms, and Fleet Command Rooms. You can now have your very own private Freighter Command Center Quarters. Meaning, if you build those three things together, an NPC will never, ever enter that part of your Freighter Base, keeping them shady Gek's away from your most-sensitive areas. :-P Do keep in mind that with the Zero NPC's .pak, your entire Freighter Base becomes private, which is great if you don't want to watch NPC's clumsily stumble around or seemingly give themselves "timeouts" for no apparent reasons. :-)
