Admin & Configuration: Spawn Filtering

The values in this section can be found in multiple config files, specifically:

• SpaceCargoShips
• RandomEncounters
• PlanetaryCargoShips
• PlanetaryInstallations
• BossEncounters
• DroneEncounters

These allow you to prevent certain SpawnGroups from appearing when they are spawned as a particular spawn type, or if the encounter is on a particular planet.
