When you kill someone it's basically gta online rules. They respawn near the spot they died at,
So I can keep killing them over and over.
They repair their ship and I break it again.
They should give you the option to choose where to spawn to be honest. Endless spawnkilling is just bad game design.
But hey, I was thinking of playing permadeath. So I guess this wouldn't be an issue. If I kill someone, they're dead forever. If I'm killed, I'm dead forever.
