About this mod
Complements Althir's No Travel mod, and Traveler272's No Travel - Split Version, by disabling the travel engine for all Terran ships. Optional VRO Compatible Version as well.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
Disables the travel engine for Terran ships.
Just drop into the extensions folder, delete to uninstall.
I just used Althir and Traveler272's work to adapt a version for Terran ships, send all credit that way.
You'll want to get both the original No Travel mod and No Travel - Split Version, otherwise only Terran ships will have the drive disabled.
I'd also recommend either getting a mod that starts you with a SETA drive or having one before you use this.

Why disable Travel Drive?
To me, it makes the world feel more alive. Instead of ships zipping across the map, now the zones are populated by trade lines, you get the chance to intercept ships without some +/- 30km distance between pinging their shield and them actually slowing down, fleets hold their formations better and travel together as do escorts for your trade fleets.
In my first 30 minutes of using this mod I experienced more combat than in the prior 20 hours.
Requires more strategic thought and risk management. You are effectively immortal as a player with a travel drive. Keep travel mode up and you can explore nearly anything without much risk.
To me, disabling the travel drive instantly makes the game so much closer to what X3 was and what I feel X4 should be, that's why the mod.
