Independent Contractors

Independent Contractors adds several NPC Grid Encounters to your game. This includes Space and Planetary Cargo Ships, and Planetary Installations.



This table provides information about what to expect with the encounters in this mod. Please note the following may not apply to every encounter. For more information on the attributes, click on the attribute name to view more information on the Modular Encounters Systems Wiki.




Previously, there were 3 mods (Air Traffic, Surface Occupation, and Reddit Custom Encounters) that contained a variety of ships and stations. These three mods were reworked to have modernized grid systems, and to fit into 3 faction-specific mods (Imber, Incon, Parallax).


Independent Contractors (Incon) are a collective of ships and station operators. They are not affiliated with larger organizations such as Imber or Parallax. Contractors do have a level of respect for one another, so it's not uncommon to see cooperation between their ships and stations.

These groups are sometimes targeted by the larger organizations when they trespass in their territories, and on the flip side, some contractors have been known to attack ships owned by the larger orgs.


Incon includes a variety of ships and stations that spawn in all environments. These encounters are hostile by default towards players and other NPCs.

Ships will typically spawn with basic cargo ship behavior (flying from point A to point B). If you lower your reputation with Incon to a low enough point, then some of their more militarized ships will deviate from their cargo ship path to directly engage you if you get too close.

Both ships and stations will sometimes spawn with drones that will escort or patrol the areas near its parent grid.

Stations may call for help when attacked. If there is an eligible cargo ship near by, it may deviate from its path to attack the player that is assaulting the station - otherwise drones may be spawned instead.


Incon encounters are equipped with Energy Inhibitor Modules that will slowly depelete player energy when too close to these grids. This effect intensifies as you get closer to the module. Stations are also equipped with Hand Drill Inhibitor Modules that will interfere with player drill use when too close to a station. These effects do not happen while players are piloting a grid.
