Yes, You're right, Frank Stella's work could spawn a whole fleet.

Those aren't nice suburb cops.
Must find the appropriate pList line to limit their appearance to ghetto systems.

A simple condition script is all you need.

Yes? You recommend a "condition_script" pointing to a (java )script rather than a simple pList "conditions"?

Both are possible, I just prefer the js because it's more flexible.

You wouldn’t happen to remember a close examle of this at the top of your head that I could imitate?

this.allowSpawnShip = function(shipKey) 
{
	var systemGov = system.government;
		
	if(system.isInterstellarSpace || system.sun.isGoingNova || system.sun.hasGoneNova)
	{ 
		return false;
	};

	switch(shipKey) 
	{
		// stable systems will be handled by GalCop police
		case "nephthys_phantom_mark_IF_bhg":
									
			if(systemGov > 2)
			{
				return false;
			};
			break;

		// unstable systems will be handled by BHG, Dictators OXP and Commies OXP got their own police force 
		case "nephthys_phantom_mark_IF_GalCop":
								
			if((systemGov < 3) || (systemGov == 3 && worldScripts["dictators.js"]) || 
			   (systemGov == 4 && worldScripts["communist_population"]))
			{
				return false;
			};
			break;	
			
		default:
			break;
	};
			
	return true;
};
