there's no option for four times as many.

You are a glutton for punishment, aren't you?

I hate them so much I don't join FQM games anymore. It's just extra micromanagement without adding any depth to the play.

There should be a Version of FQM that has everything the same except the damaging WPs. That would be good.

It is very simple to remove them. The host just has to go into StellarAbilityTypes.txt and set the chances for the damaging WPs to 0, and there will be none. That file is only used when the map is generated, so nothing has to be changed on PBW or on the players' copies of the mod.

There is just too many of them, so often there is no choice but going through. The damage is not a big deal as its usually only minor, but the ships looses its orders. This is particulary anoying for colonizers.

I'll keep that in mind when I discuss game setup in the future
