This mod allows you to visit Master Helmsman Ravor on the bridge and select a new dialog option to trigger a random combat encounter. You can choose either a ship depths fight or a space battle which are similar to those encountered on warp routes.
The voidship depths encounters mix up the pieces of the existing static random encounters, meaning you will find some new combinations of location and opposition to add some variety to your violence.
There is level-based scaling, but expect to be overwhelmed before act 2 and underwhelmed by the end of act 4 until and unless I add some custom enemy groups to fill out the edges.
Installation:
You will need to install MicroPatches version 1.17.4+ for this mod to work.
The easiest way to install it would be to use Modfinder. Download the .zip file and drag it into the Modfinder window or select it from the list.
If not using ModFinder, you will need to unzip the folder into your Game's Modifications folder. The path will be similar to C:\Users\Me\AppData\LocalLow\Owlcat Games\Warhammer 40000 Rogue Trader\Modifications
Once the folder is there, you may need to edit your OwlcatModificationManagerSettings.json file. This is one level up from the mod's folder. It needs to look something like:
{"$id":"1","SourceDirectories":[],"EnabledModifications":["jhFindAHeretic"],"ActiveModifications":["jhFindAHeretic"],"DisabledModifications":[]}
You will need to add the two entries for jhFindAHeretic following the format above. Once this file is edited you can start your game and you should see the mod in the in-game mod tool (not the built in Unity Mod Manager)
