There are a lot of ships in our game, but everyone is still flying the Rusty Bucket. It is not good. In particular, the problem is that large ships need a large crew, but what if there is none?
That is why I propose to introduce guard bots that will be hostile to everyone except the player and his team. There can even be 4 bots, you don’t need a large number, just a minimum of security will be enough if you are not on the ship or just driving. After the bot sees the enemy, he must inform you that the ship has been infiltrated so that you return and deal with the intruder.
There is also a second security option, it continues the Flak 44 turrets that hang throughout space. You can put turrets, but with Submachine gun all over the ship, thereby providing yourself with cover. Turrets, of course, should be moderately stupid, slowly scan the area and react for a long time to the appearance of the player. In general, this is a mechanic so that you have a chance while the enemies are distracted to make your evasive maneuver.
I hope you like my idea and it will become much more comfortable to fly on large ships.
