📋 About This Mod
✅ Compatible - EXML patch mod - likely to work well with all other mods
✅ Update Safe - Likely to survive updates
This mod increases the number of traders that stop at space stations and trade outposts (mostly space stations). In my tests, I saw close to a 100% increase at stations and a 20% increase at trade outposts. This is good for ship hunting, as you'll see many more ships. This does not change the seeds of ships you see in a particular system.
Put the entire contents of the zip file in your GAMEDATA\MODS folder, not PCBANKS, similar to this:

Skip if you're happy with vanilla spawn rates or want more than just frequency changes.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place the EXML file in the correct mod folder (e.g., GAMEDATA\PCBANKS\MODS) and delete the DISABLEMODS.TXT file if present.
- Since this mod doesn't change seeds, your existing ship hunting routes remain valid — just more ships will show up.
- If you're using other mods that affect station traffic, test for conflicts by enabling this mod alone first.
