Today I finally downloaded the NPC update. I went to scavenger space to see what fleets are like, and I was greeted by literally 30 ships all shooting at each other. My fps dropped to 1 and I just barely got my ship out of the area. Is this intentional ? I know we all want to see epic battles but 30 ships is a bit much.
Are there any config setting for limiting the number of npc ships spawned ?
Another problem that I'd think would effect fps is the population of the universe. There should be other settings to limit the spawn chance of each type of object. I know there's one for shop spawn chance, but there is nothing for asteroids planets or stations, and stations are the most common fps killer to suddenly run into. These kind of settings seem a bit crucial for this game. Are there any plans to implement more spawn chance settings ?
I know the game can't cater to low-end PCs but there should be settings to crank up or down depending on what you have, and I almost think that that npc swarm was caused by a bug.
