So, I'm a bit new to SE, I decided to pick it up after seeing what this mod could do, but I think I'm having trouble getting it working.

I'll activate the mod and launch a custom game, and as soon as I'm in, I'll go to create my faction and check that the others such as the police were there, but I've never seen any more factions than Space Pirates and Spiders.

In addition, I haven't seen any new respawn ships.

Both of the above lead me to think my install of the mod is not working, any suggestions?
