About this mod
Disables the encounter mechanism which warps ships in front of the player
- Permissions and credits
X4 has an encounter mechanism which creates random bits of chaos as the player flies around. Certain jobs have an encounter ID attached, and when the player flies into a new zone, the game sometimes warps these ships in front of the player and overrides their current orders. The encounter mechanism doesn't spawn ships!! - it warps existing ships.
Neverless, this offends the purist in me. It means the player ship is treated differently from other ships, and goes against the idea of action happening because of the cool systems in the game rather than happening just because.
So, this mod edits one MD script in two places, and this prevents encounters from being generated.

It doesn't stick to your savegame, so you should be free to remove the folder whenever you please.
