"There are guides relating to flotillas bdms which also explain how they spawn etc.

I didnt find any answer there, yet no asnwer here for two weeks and you told me Im bugging you?

I have answered these specific questions before, also this guide does explain most of this quite plainly.

1. Flotillas without .bdm will spawn more than once.
2. They are added to the specific factions spawn tables
3. Non bdm ones will respawn. Bdms only spawn once.
4. They will spawn literally everywhere where the normal ships spawn. Entirety of home (orange sector) will spawn all factions. Red will spawn mainly pirates.
5. No affect yet. Crystal pirates are incomplete quest triggers.

You're bugging by cross posting and derailing another topic thread when you know where and how exactly to contact us and already have done so.
You could have nicely asked "could I have this discussion looked at", or just bumped this thread rather than saying "oh the devs could not answer me, I cant do anything".
I aint an omnipotent internet god, cant keep track of everything. We're humans too, and have feelings. :'(

Does that mean more flotillas, or same number of flotillas, but with more types?

When it wants to spawn a ship, it will look up the spawn table and take one so...
yeah you could say essentialy same "number" of spawns but more types of spawns.

There are plans to be able to change rates of spawns, but for now it will be this system.
It can be roughly attributed that the system is not meant to be a bustling system, yet.

Thank you.

No problem
