Muchas gracias, amigo - a little addition, and it's done:

Just to point put this where it belongs:

Does anybody have any idea which OXP might be generating this massive convoy of ships?

It's Nuit stations, or at least that's how it looks to me.

With Nuit stations, heap o' traders.
Without Nuit stations, normal.
Replace Nuit and the glitch returns.

This problem does not exist with your version! It is only with the most recent version (2.3). And the armada only appeared with me at the witchpoint beacon and then left en masse.

The idea of an armada appearing is enthralling - but when it only ever happens to be there at the instant of arrival and at no other times, it tends to wreck the immersion.

I rather think that it could make for an interesting seperate OXP - especially if you had armadas of juntas or commies materialising out of the blue! Montana05 did something along these lines (Star Wars oxps), but never properly published it.

I had occasionally seen the mass of ships at the wp, but was never able to identify the culprit. I’ll have a look at the code to see where it might have all gone wrong.

Interesting effect, regular jump spawns a lone trader, 'nuit oxp' jump spawns a (big) trader with 'escorts'...

Try a high TL Corporate - I was seeing 60-80 ships at a time!

with trunk and nuit the only xp, i encounter just on of those big traders, perhaps with others/more oxp's the influence this effect has is grander...

I've just uploaded a new version of Nuit Station (v2.4) which should (hopefully) correct the issue with massed ships at the witchpoint.

Jumped to a tl15 corporate, no trader with escorts after jump / /
