SINCE KEEN "FIXED" CARGO SHIPS, THEY WILL NO LONGER SPAWN IN ANY GRAVITY WELL. I'M LEAVING THIS MOD UP SO THOSE OF YOU WHO LIKE TO PLAY AROUND WITH IT CAN STILL TINKER WITH IT AS YOU WILL.





ALSO ASSUMING YOU CAN EDIT AND ENABLE CARGO SHIPS. ADDITIONAL GUIDE TO DO THIS:

Do you play Solo, or PVE with friends?

Ever wish there was abit more danger in Space Engineers?

Would you like to break the tedium of deep space mining with abit of excitement?

Wish there was a reason to have all that Dakka?

Now you got it.

This is a mod I made for our private dedicated server. It uses the cargo ships spawning mechanic to spawn custom drones with that will hunt you down wherever you are... be it moon, planet or in space.

This drone will then spawn appropriate NPC ships adapted to your location to attack you.
It will find you, shoot you up, then leave.

It is easily countered either by hunting it down or trying to keep it at range. It can hurt however if you leave it to do it's thing. Guard your mining rig!

I made this mod balanced for our survival enviroment- The ships leave very little or no wreckage, and have a failsafe timer to self destruct (leaving no wreckage) if the server fails to delete them. Even if you do manage to capture one, the resources available are minimal... it's not a viable alternative to mining.
So, very little impact on simspeed that we've noticed, and only the occasional cleanup neccessary, far less than keen stock anyway.



Your world save sbc file (sandbox.sbc) is located in

\AppData\Roaming\SpaceEngineers\Saves\**(steamid)**\**yoursave**

This location changes based on your steamID. If you're looking at a funky number, you're in the right place. Look for your world save folder in there.

<CargoShipsEnabled>false</CargoShipsEnabled>
to
<CargoShipsEnabled>true</CargoShipsEnabled>

THESE SHIPS CAN BE TOUGH TO COUNTER WHEN FIRST STARTING OUT.


We keep our GlobalEvents.sbc set to fire these things off every six hours or so. Your mileage may vary, as I haven't balanced these for a non-mature server. The stock settings are a little more than I'd wish to handle.

When I find a decent balance, I may include a copy of my GlobalEvents.sbc in the mod.

To change the spawn frequency to your liking, find your GlobalEvents.sbc in
\Steam\steamapps\common\SpaceEngineers\Content\Data
and edit the lines:

<MinActivationTimeMs>780000</MinActivationTimeMs>
<MaxActivationTimeMs>10200000</MaxActivationTimeMs>
<FirstActivationTimeMs>300000</FirstActivationTimeMs>

An hour is 3600000 miliseconds.

If all else fails, you can always run.




This is my first public mod release. I've seen quite a few people asking for something like this, and we love it on our server.

KNOWN ISSUES:
Occasionally the drone will just eat dirt, because autopilot in SE is retarded. Still working on that. It's about a 5% chance. Leaves little wreckage. Working on this.

Occasionally the drone will spawn so close to the surface that it will disengage before reaching close enough to launch drones, again, the autopilot is retarded. Working on this.


TODO LIST:

Planetary spawns are stock keen ships. Need to change them to keep with my "less wreckage, more simspeed" rule

More diverse space and moon spawns.

Cleaner code in the scripts.


Constructive feedback appreciated. I'd like to find a decent spawn rate that's a good starting point for everyone.
Again, we use this on our dedicated survival server for weeks and it's worked wonderfully so far.
