How did you fix it, roughly. and is the issue still there?

MES comes with config files. Find the folder where your save data is located, in there the is a folder called storage within that folder is the MES folder that has all the config files for the MES mods you have installed. Open the config file for the mod you want to change.
There should be a few lines in there that you can mess around with. I think changing the values of the lines below would do what you want

<MaxShipsPerArea>3</MaxShipsPerArea>
<AreaSize>15000</AreaSize>

There is a link in the main page of the mod to the wiki. Here is one page from it:
https://github.com/MeridiusIX/Modular-Encounters-Systems/wiki/Admin-&-Configuration:-Space-Cargo-Ships

With the information there you can find the config files for your install of the mod and sort out which ones are most likely to make the sort of changes you need. As far as technical documents go, this is extraordinarily good; but even with that said: it IS some pretty dense technical mumbo-jumbo so I had to stare at it for a while to get a conception of what to change. If you ask the authors about a very specific question informed by the nitty-gritty of these, they will probably be more amenable (and able) to help than with generalized questions.

With all that said: I too felt like the Space spawns were too frequent, so I adjusted the numbers on a couple of things. So far the things I've changed are at:
MySaveWorldFolder\Storage\1521905890.sbm_ModularEncountersSpawner\Config-SpaceCargoShips.xml

<FirstSpawnTime>2700</FirstSpawnTime>
<MinSpawnTime>7020</MinSpawnTime>
<MaxSpawnTime>9180</MaxSpawnTime>
<MaxShipsPerArea>7</MaxShipsPerArea>

Basically, that changes the time intervals to be about 9x slower than the default, and reduces the number of ships per area by half. I think the following two are also changed by something like 2.2x

<MinPathDistanceFromPlayer>5000</MinPathDistanceFromPlayer>
<MaxPathDistanceFromPlayer>9000</MaxPathDistanceFromPlayer>

These changes DEFINITELY seem to have "worked:" I have not see a SINGLE red item on my HUD since implementing those changes. But that is only an hour or so of play time. It may be that those changes are too extreme and I'll have to shift the numbers back toward the defaults.

SUGGESTION: before making any changes, while still in the folder view (before you open any documents) copy and paste the document you want to make changes to, to create a backup copy. Rename it to "Blah, blah ORIGINAL" if you want it to be less obscure in 5 years when you come back to mess with it again!

Another point of note: there are "sub-mods" that accessorize this one, such as: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=888490008

My understanding is that installing one of those (e.g., Slow, Slower or Slowest) will reduce the number of spawns.
