Possible to prevent space station spawning?

[eagleeye91]

Hi, I want to run a server with a working economy and high difficulty. So what I've done is disable loot from pirates, so that you can only salvage them, that's because you could get loot worth over 1000 million from one pirate....

So my next step was to disable station spawning, as it is just too easy to find and salvage them, and this is where I need help..

After looking around in the files I'm pretty sure I there have to be made a change in some class files in the .jar file, and I have no experience with java.

The reason I want this, as I said earlier, is to have higher difficulty, and a so-called "survival" mode, as for the standard settings it's just really creative, after 20 min playtime you can build/afford anything in the game, I want players to be proud of what they have achieved on my server, and play serious with their supplies

Honestly, don\'t bother. The game is so unbalanced at this stage that trying to make any kind of economy based servers is impossible. There are so many ways to get tons of money that its not worth it, and if you disable blueprints you will massively limit what people can build because they are limited to what they can buy from the stores (that don\'t restock well).



So even if they have max money, they won\'t be able to buy enough parts quickly to build massive ships.

Well, i understand that, but anyway, i would like to know more about this, is it possible? would anyone who knows java check this out? thanks..

I played on a while on desolation and they fixed this problem by making standard hull and glass close to worthless and have quite high prices on ship parts(up to 30K for thrusters, weapons mostly 7-10K. If you start up a server like this, I would be happy to join it as desolation shut down. Also, if you decide to disable blueprints, it would make the erver a lot more challenging as ships are worth more.(and factories and cubatoms are encouraged)



I don\'t think you can disable space stations though



EDIT: Maybe deleting the space station blueprint works
