1.9.1 No Random Encounters

[Tacticus Winter]

I'm seeing no random encounters whatsoever. I just traveled from Rattay all the way to Skalitz and I've only seen the same model of wayfarer and nothing else. Haven't gotten any ambushes in fast travel either. Not even bandits in usual ambush spots that I remember.

The only time I have gotten ambushed is twice on the road from Peshek to Woycezk by 2 naked bandits with torches.

I do have Roads are Dangerous installed with the new enemy types. Should I switch to the other one that doesn't include the new enemy types?

Try to travel at night and without mods.

I traveled from Skalitz to Rattay (half fast, half real time) and only got one encounter with a murder framer.

It's 'random'. There is random chance than one person can never find any encounter at all, and for sure it'd happen if infinity players would play it. R A N D O M. You can't have anything for sure if it's random. Unless it is not, but it is. So, what's the problem?

there's a coded percentage chance for events to happen. It's been well documented. In previous versions, some bugs would completely disable random events and modders to find workarounds.

There are ways to edit the code; however, they all seem to be outdated which is why I'm posting here. I'm about 30 hours in on this playthrough and I've only had 3 encounters. 2 against naked bandits. So yes, something seems to be bugged with random encounters in 1.9.1

This is a very outdated, game-breaking mod since 1.5 at least

I uninstalled that and still no luck

I don't run mods and I get plenty of ambushes and events so I don't understand your problem get rid of your mods!

I've had this problem for months, with and without mods

So you just uninstalled the mod and expect it to work? You have to create a new game. That mod was an overhaul. Mods don't just work with a click and go.

Dangerous Roads mod is very outdated and causes some pretty huge bugs with some of the DLC. Do not use it

I installed the mod about 15 hours in and having only been attacked twice by some naked bandits.

I got zero encounters with the mod enabled for about 8 hours of gameplay (probably due to it being broken)

I uninstalled the mod about 7 hours of gameplay ago and I've had 2 encounters since

I wish they would let you edit these things to customize your gameplay experience.

I haven't even seen any wayfairing or faint-hearted knights. 30+ hours in and you'd expect to see them at least once but I haven't something's not right.

When I go fast travel during a quest I sometimes see two ambushes back to back, something they call a pilgrim or that knight or wayfairing all in one travel and so most of the time I skip them because I am on a quest and I don't want to be bothered so all I am saying is my game is not broken. If I am not in a quest then I don't mind the encounters and then I will fight them or see what they are about but they do happen maybe not as often as you would like oh and by the way have any of you seen that rope trick near the miller place. I got knocked off my horse by that rope and had to fight a tough knight? What a surprise that was for the first time.

Non-hostile random encounters are pretty rare.

Skirmishes and ambushes are common and can even be farmed on certain roads (e.g. from Led to Sasau along the south bank of the river).
