What mod description did you see that line in , looks like something i could find useful. Cause as far as i know Ossian raider mod knows nothing about xenon.Mistle wrote: ↑Wed, 13.

Then in your save file, set Xenon and Ossian Raider as allies.
With Ossian Raider mod, you can control the difficulty in game by going to Terran trader sector station to update how hard Ossian raider is.
Trying "Xenon Rebirth" at the moment but after reading about Ossian Raider want to try it together.
Just one question , should I change save game if in mod description I saw :
- flagships mk1: invasions of Xenon R and Ossian Raider flagships - you should have some capital ships
- flagships mk3: invasions of Xenon R and Ossian Raider flagships - you should have many capital ships
Does activating it at NPC mod already activate Xenon invasion ?
These settings you mention are they in Xenon rebirth, cause i have never used xenon rebirth.
For Ossian raider you only set difficulty of Ossian raider at NPc station, not xenon alliance.
To make xenon and ossian raider allies
you need to create save file that can be edited by going into X4 settings to disable save file compression.
Then open save file in something like visual studio and search for this line using the ctrl f <faction id="ossianraider
in that area is whre you need to set Ossian raider xenon relations to a number between 0 and 1. negative numbers is for enemies max -1.
I have it set to 0.8.
And you have to set the same for xenon at <faction id="xenon">.
When your game starts Xenon and Ossian will be allies.
And it might be worth your while getting dynamic wars mod, this allows you to set the relationship between factions including ossian raider.
Howver you need to remove the locked relations of ossian raider in save file. Some factions have lock on thier relations, it looks like this in save file
<relations locked="1">, change to <relations>.
At time you may find you want to help xenon without increasing the power of Ossian raider, thats when i use the cheat menu to add supplies to xenon Ship yards, but i dont like to help npc build small ships, just causes mire fps loss, so i help shipyards more than waf.
As last resort i use cheat menu to add ships for factions at a specific location, example i add ships for xenon at gates if they loosing too much. and i dont want to increase ossian raider power.
With Ossian Raider, Cheat menu , and Dynamic wars, you got a lot of control on game difficulty and dynamics of faction relations.
If you really want xenon to be most powerful become xenon allie , so that you can build them Shipyards with a very large amount of storage, then set that storage to full
using cheat menu, and xenon will be rolling out ships forver taking sectors, and when you want to slow them down just stop adding to thier storage.
The reason am not too kin on this method is cause being Xenon allie means i need more complex trade restrictions to separate trade with xenon from trade with other factions , and also fire overrides on ships etc. That's why i try to help the enemy factions without actually becoming an allie.
