Re: plugin (i hope) request

Subject: Re: plugin (i hope) request by { Timmy51m} on 2012/6/18 19:40:42 What are you referring to Skotty? If you're referring to NPC max spawn distances then as I understand it that just effects how far away from the player a ship will spawn. Vanilla is 2.5k and one reason for upping that was because battleships look a bit daft just popping up out of nowhere right in your face. I spent ages tinkering with that when I was playing around with itano circus and saw no other effect. You still had to be in the encounter zone to effect a spawn. C'mon Vital, don't just say NO, clue us in to how things actually work if you have a better understanding of how encounters are called. I certainly want to know how they work if I've got it wrong. Edit: I see there is a proximity to zone for patrol paths and tradelane encounters, but I guess they are such small zones that nothing would ever spawn if that were not the case. Can't see anything for any other kind of zone.
