Hi all!
I'm new to the boards but not a N00B too freelancer modding.
i already have build 3 systems with each 4 trade lanes 2 planets and 4 stations.
Everything seems to be working perfectly.
But there is one thing i seem to be missing.... activity in the system

I figured out how to make asteroids, nebula's, but i can't figure out traffic.
And how can i make the traffic interact with the bases?
Well I made a traffic script but it seems to crash the system i put it in.
Here is the script:

[EncounterParameters
nickname = area_defend
filename = missions\encounters\area_defend.ini

[EncounterParameters
nickname = area_trade_freighter
filename = missions\encounters\area_trade_freighter.ini

[EncounterParameters
nickname = area_trade_transport
filename = missions\encounters\area_trade_transport.ini

[Zone
nickname = Zone_demi02_planet
pos =94000, 0, -1555
rotate = 0, 0, 0
shape = SPHERE
size = 10000
comment = Newmars
sort = 1
toughness = 1
density = 12
repop_time = 10
max_battle_size = 8
pop_type = li_p_grp, base_cluster_law
relief_time = 10
faction_weight = li_p_grp, 6
faction_weight = co_be_grp, 7
faction_weight = co_hsp_grp, 7
faction_weight = co_kt_grp, 7
faction_weight = co_me_grp, 7
faction_weight = co_nws_grp, 7
faction_weight = co_ni_grp, 7
faction_weight = co_os_grp, 4
faction_weight = co_rs_grp, 7
faction_weight = co_shi_grp, 7
faction_weight = co_ss_grp, 7
faction_weight = co_vr_grp, 8
faction_weight = gd_bh_grp, 3
density_restriction = 4, unlawfuls
Encounter = area_defend, 1, 0.070000
faction = li_p_grp, 1.000000
Encounter = area_bh_defend, 1, 0.030000
faction = gd_bh_grp, 1.000000
Encounter = area_trade_freighter, 1, 0.090000
faction = co_hsp_grp, 0.260000
faction = co_me_grp, 0.260000
faction = co_ss_grp, 0.260000
faction = co_vr_grp, 0.210000
Encounter = area_trade_transport, 1, 0.120000
faction = co_be_grp, 0.100000
faction = co_hsp_grp, 0.100000
faction = co_kt_grp, 0.100000
faction = co_me_grp, 0.100000
faction = co_nws_grp, 0.100000
faction = co_ni_grp, 0.100000
faction = co_rs_grp, 0.100000

Can anyone see an error?
And can you help me make transports interact with my bases??
Many thanks in advance!!

I dont see any error but
Encounter = area_trade_freighter, 1, 0.090000
0.090000 gives about a 9% chance that an encounter will spawn try making it more likely that something will show up 1.000000 is a 100% chance it will spawn
0.500000 is a 50% chance and so on.
