Hostile Intercept
and Autopause!
Download v1.3.2
This utility mod adds radiating rings around hostile and intercepting fleets so you can easily spot them. It also adds autopause!
Features:
– Hostile fleets/stations radiate red rings
– Fleets chasing you or looking for you radiate grey rings
– Autopause!
– Jump point autopause
Autopause only works while a course is set, and vice versa for jump point autopause. You can enable/disable them in settings.json, or modify them temporarily mid-game using
Console Commands.

this is VITAL! could you add a feature that has it autopause when a fleet that is chasing you is detected? that would also be nice.
That would be hell a lot of pauses!
Looks like someone is way smarter than the rest of us. Nice work.
You flatterer, you

A good idea, and a good point. I will think about it later.

Maybe to cut back on the pauses, the game only pauses when you go from no fleets detecting you to 1?
Added autopause! Only works while you have a course laid in and are following it.
Changes:
– Added autopause feature when a course is laid in and being followed
– Does not work for courses set to an arbitrary point in space, for now
– Fixed missing marker on fleets that have been individually turned hostile
Can we have a sound alarm if autopause is off?
Sure can!
Updated to 1.2.0! Download in the OP
Improved autopause and added sound alarms. Added a separate pause mechanic for after you go through a jump point.
Also, you can now toggle all the autopause features from the mod’s data/config/settings.json, even mid-game!
Version 1.2.0
– Added alarm when an intercept is detected
– Added alarm when autopause activates (or would have)
– Added snooze timer after an autopause happens
– Added pause after jumping when a course is NOT set
– Unless you set a course to that jump point
– Can be limited to when a threat is detected
– Fixed some loopholes in autopause logic
– Can now activate and deactivate autopause, etc. at any point by editing the mod’s data/config/settings.json
– Autopause actually does work for courses set to arbitrary points

Added console commands support!
Changes:
– Added console commands to enable/disable certain features:
– HI_Autopause
– HI_JumpPause
– HI_InterceptAlarm
– Settings.json changes only take affect on restart
– Settings.json overrides console commands on restart
BitBucket broke Version Checker, so I have moved my files to github. Added a requested feature while I was at it.
Version 1.3.1
– Added option to make autopause only activate when a fleet is targeting yours
– Migrated Version Checker file to github.com
