Stock game, the single merchants have a 70% chance to spawn every 2 to 3 days. Given how fast a day can zip by with high time compression, thats alot of ships.
In my FTT mod, next version ive reduced that to a 30 to 35% chance to spawn every 2 to 3 days. (troop convoys and task forces 30-35% chance every 2 weeks) My worry is that maybe that is too much of a reduction, although i based that figure on script work ive done in SH3, and it seemed to be appropriate. Havent had a chance to test it yet though.
