MES The Xenvakian Empire

This mod utilises MES and Rival AI to create a hostile NPC faction (The Xenvakian Empire-TXVE) Leave them alone and they will leave you alone. Antagonise them and they will up their aggressiveness in response.

TXVE Aggression is affected by your reputation level with them (between -1000 and -1500) Planetary Installations feature Hand Drill Inhibitors, Ships and Stations feature Jumpdrive and/or Jetpack Inhibitors. This faction can be permanently defeated by destroying the TXVE Dreadnaught Final Boss Encounter, it's purple GPS can only appear once at least 1 player/faction has reached 700 threat score.

To start this mod all player(s) need to be in a faction (multiple/1 player factions is fine). This will allow the lowest level of aggression Probe Unit (Atmo or Space) to spawn which then unlocks the rest of the factions spawns. It is set up like this because otherwise on first time load the highest aggression tiers would be eligible to spawn (I'm not that mean) :)

If Probe Unit hasn't spawned reasonably early on (if running alongside other NPC mods it's less likely to spawn) they can be manually spawned by using the chat command /MES.SPCS.TXVE-Probe-Unit-Atmo-Passive when on a planet or /MES.SSCS.TXVE-Probe-Unit-Ion-Passive when in space.

Ships won't spawn via MES on Pertam owing to it's unique atmospheric characteristics (extremely shallow atmosphere.)

Thanks to Xendaka for all the designs used in this mod. Thanks to Meridus IX/Lucas for creating MES and Rival AI.

Don't republish this mod (unlisted for a server/personal use is fine) as I don't want the hassle of issuing a DMCA but I will if necessary.
