friendly fire...

[Frostedawg]

So I know nothing about modding x4 but I'm curious how hard it would be for someone to say... make a mod that just makes it so you can't damage anything from a faction you have 20+ rep with unless you manually set something of theirs to hostile... in which case by all means nuke my rep with them. I love this game but I am so sick of constant rep grinds getting erased in seconds because of stray fire from AI fighters. Any insight would be great!

You would need to make all ships and station (going through all modules) invulnerable and then reverse that if you decide to declare war. However, It's a tricky subject as it may break things (missions) and, to be honest, I'm not sure it would be enough to prevent hostility.

Should be possible to mod the relation thresholds in defaults.xml. Not sure if that's all that's needed, though, not really my area.

edit: Whoops! Sorry, didn't realize this was back in October.

Please explain more I'm interested

You can use my Friendly Fire Tweaks mod from Nexus.

The victim only reacts to friendly fire if:
1. the victim is the actual target of the attacker or
2. the victim's shields are below 25%

Otherwise, friendly fire is ignored.
