Roger Bacon's Armed Merchants Mod does the following:
-- increases the max # of weapons on civilian ships from 1 to 10
-- Allows any "flee" setting instead of just "enemy sighted"

I armed freighters and construction ships some time back and the game choked.

Did they fix this.

Thank you, RB! I am going to download this. :)

This is for version 1.7.0.7. I don't know if it will work with other version or not. Let me know if it works with your version.
I use it and have armed merchant ships with no problem. It is very satisfying to ge a message "so and so is under attack by a pirate" and jump there to see the priate gettign its ass kicked.

Yep. The AI still has sole control over all private ships.

Haha, that's pretty cool!

I might try this mod, I often get a bit stretched trying to escort all trade routes.
