Defenses
Cargo ships may be booby trapped in the following ways
Booby Trapped (thruster damage)
Cargo ships are sailing through space at a constant speed, so their dampeners are switched off. If thrust is requested in a particular direction (usually reverse), a thruster may be hidden inside the ship to disable it (destroy all reactors), or even detonate a warhead.
Defuse Tactic
Due to the orientation of the truster trap it works only in one direction. So turn the ship around, activate the inertia dampener and you are good to search for the thruster bomb.
Anti Ship Defence
Gatling Turrets, or Missile Turrets may be placed around the ship to defend it against, well, you.
As of v1.31 (list), the Gatling Turrets and Missile Turrets are functioning and will shoot decoy blocks, meteors or anything that moves faster than 3m/s, including you.
Distraction Tactic
The turrets will target even chunks of raw materials, if they are moving with more than 3m/s. If you shower the target-ship with superfluous material (like stones) as chaff, the turrets will be distracted and you can approach more safely. But keep some chaff between you and the turrets! When you have reached the ship, try to access a terminal and turn the turrets off.
Anti Personnel Defence
Interior Turrets may be found inside the ship to defend it against personnel.
As of v1.31 (list), the Interior Turrets are functioning and will shoot decoy blocks, meteors or anything that moves faster than 3m/s, including you.
Avoidance Tactic
Try to reach a terminal which isn't in the shooting range of the turret. Access it and turn of the offending turrets.
