Mod to restore the Khaak / removed starting options?

[Woochi the Wizard]

I've just got back into the game after many years of absence, and wanted to fight the Khaak again in AP. But they're not in AP since they are defeated in Terran Conflict. Does anyone know a mod that restores them, making the occasional khaak attack in systems / patrols / station defence missions?

As an aside, I did a thing with the files to restore all game starts (unlocking Goner, Paranid, etc), changing a value to 'fffff'. I have been told there is a Yaki Pirate start and I'd love to try it but it was 'deactivated' and you need to tweak some files to restore it. Offchance anyone knows how to do that on the side?

But mostly after the Khaak, since those demon triangles bring much pain and suffering.

might be easier to just return to tc instead.

have you finished all plots in tc yet?

ap just offers a few new sectors, some new ships, the stock exchange and new plot missions.

there is also now x3fl if you wanna check it out? it has khaak much later in the game but more like a xenon sector where they dripple through a gate and infest neighbouring sectors.

you no longer have random clusters showing up anywhere in the universe.
