So, playing today I noticed that the defenses of the magpie are straight up an unwarned instagib the moment you set foot in. This not only causes people to be confused, as it's not telegraphed or told in any ways, it also prevents salvagers from setting up certain gimmicks.
Instead of that, I'd personally like having some way of allowing certain people through, such as a forcefield that only salvagers can toggle on and off, or a whitelist that would disable the instagib for a certain set of people. Both of these ways would still prevent validhunters from immediately raiding the magpie the moment a salvager leaves their pod unlocked, but it would also give them more freedom to deal with people in their base.
Finally, if neither of these, or any alternative, are acceptable, I think that at least adding some hint towards a permanent, inevitable death if you continue going forward would be an improvement.
