    Not sure if this has been said or not..

    I dont know if anyone else has this problem or mentioned it, maybe its just dumb things ive done. I made storage shelves back by the teleporter and well I or people have come into my ship and accidentally swung their pick axe and destroyed a chunk of my chests, tossing all my stuff on the ground, not to mention the fact that everything on ship disappears after like 10 seconds it seems like.. So Im just suggesting some sort of tick box or something that you can turn on and off if a chest is destructible or not.

    Thanks

    This. People stealing stuff on your ship is not fun.

    I would even go farther and purpose that none of their tools work on your ship. This is,

    they cant use their pickaxe to destroy chests nor background, or any other misc objects. There's no fun in playing for a row for 2/3 days hoarding everything on your ship and suddently you enter multiplayer and someone enters your ship and proceeds to remove everything you earned in the past days.


    Just saying, a lock system would be great xD.

    Well the whole them not being allowed to use their pickaxe would take the fun away from building custom modded ships with friends... Maybe some how be able to friend people to your ship, which intern then they could look through your stuff/ smash crap, else for people it would just be a passing through point. But a private bank/ lockable containers would be nice to, initially i thought the ships locker was that but people steal stuff there to lol..

    Yeah, i understand your point. A Lock on your chests would be a simple solution. You adding certain people to be able to open said locked chest would be more complex but could work too i guess.

    I think a lock could easily be broken by mining the chest, as that will cause it to drop everything, unless the lock makes it unmineable.
    And could probably add options somewhere like "disallow tools/weapons on ship [ ]" (your tools would still work fully)

    This ^ would be fantastic, key-code lock the ship cargo container, and also any containers that are placed give the option if you want to lock it making it practically invulnerable to dmg, and from being removed in order to steal whats inside. As of now, most ppl are thief's... If i don't know you, or talked to you and cant trust you on my ship, im not going to party with you at all.

    Same problem with NPC´s, my mates dont thief cause I just team up with friends so we share all stuff, but NPC´s should be got a God Mode, at least on ships, cause always dual welding or involuntary click some Npc´s and then they Die.
    :p

    Yeah I had the same issue. Even accidentally killing NPCs myself. Whatever functionality allows you to lock chests (and make them invulnerable) Should also allow you to lock NPCs so they can't be killed by players until unlocked.
