How do I get NPC factions in singleplayer?

[SlavSquatSuperstar]

Hey,

I've been wondering how to get NPC factions to spawn in my world. I've seen them spawn their mining ships and claim systems as their own in people's videos, but can't do it on my own. Do I need to change blueprint privacy or use the NPC data folder? I've had pirates attack me in the Isanths, but never encountered traders (or Outcasts; they're still in the game files) at all.

If anyone can give me the answer, I'd appreciate that because I'm not interested in servers yet, and I don't have any friends to play with privately.

Thanks.

look in StarMade/server.cfg for

NPC_FACTION_SPAWN_LIMIT = 0 //Maximum npc factions per galaxy (-1 for unlimited (will still be around 2-10))

Individual factions can be turned on/off in StarMade/customNPCConfig/npcSpawnConfig.xml with the setting
<RandomSpawn>true/false
