Turn off Watchtower as a setting and not have to disable it.

[Sdshaffer94]

I am wondering if there is a way that you could add a setting to turn off watchtower all together instead of disabling the creation (just worried to corrupt my save. Updating Watchtower did just that, it corrupted my save. So, I had to cheat to go to the unity to continue playing the character and not truly start over.

Having the ability to turn it off will allow new players and new NG+ games not to worry about going into a lvl 15 or higher system and it starts Watchtower.

Disregard this discussion. It looks like you are adding a setting in up coming patch.

Someone just produced a mod entitled "not yet time watchtower". Gives you 4 options of when the mod starts.

what are the 4 options?

The mod triggered for me at level 5. Just trying to land to find Heller. Seems its impossible to get around these guys at all. The game doesn't let you land anywhere, and the Frontier cannot fight them. Level 5 seems very low to start this, and the mod mentioned above, when applied to a save prior to landing on Vectera has not prevented them from showing up again. Looking like I'm going to have to start a new game and hope it doesn't happen again.

Hi! Just so you're aware, the mod kicks off any time you head to a level 15 star system, regardless of your character level even on main constellation missions. And I feel your pain lol, that's why now I usually see vlad and grab andreja only at first, sometimes I snag sam since you only have to do akila which is low level. But sometimes even temple number two that vlad lists is a lv15 or higher, so I drag my feet doing other stuff until I'm at least character level 15 to 20. Hope that helps. Have fun!

That is good to know. I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out why it triggered at level 5 in spite of saying it wouldn't trigger until level 15. Just traveling to the empty moon with Heller on it triggered it. Starting a new playthrough with "Not Yet Watchtower" installed and set to delay the mod until after later events, and hoping it does the trick.
