Q about single contacts
 

If I wanted to play the game AOD style, like I only get to attack ships I see/hear myself, not with those strange contact reports of loners, is it sufficient to open the contacts.cfg and change the "display range to opportunity radio contacts" to 0 or do I have to change sth else too?

nope thats it
Change it to 8 - thats about visual range anyway

Ok thanks, will try that.
