📋 About This Mod
Bring meaning to territorial control in X4: Foundations.
FOR STAR WARS INTERWORLDS ONLY.
"“This is an Imperial border checkpoint. Transmit clearance codes or divert to an approved corridor.”"
Faction Border Control - SWI introduces enforceable sector boundaries, allowing the player to regulate which faction's may enter their controlled sectors. Unauthorized ships will be requested to leave the players sector's immediately!
Mod was originally released on the SWI Discord early last month but had never properly uploaded here. Feel free to grab it there or from here! I will release intermediate test builds there before doing full releases here!
