I agree with Runyan99 that these contacts occur unrealistically often in the stock game (with or without RUb). However, I keep them on anyway, to observe the pattern of ship movements thus simulating agents' reports. But for realism one should only rarely choose to intercept single-ship contacts.
I totally agree - and thanks for the tip on disabling this 'feature'
