I only have about 80 hours in game and not a whole lot of multiplayer experience. I was unaware that another player could just randomly come attack you while flying your ship. It makes a lot of sense now but when i was landing on a planet I got absolutely lasered by another player. I died so quickly I thought it was a glitch. So i went back to get my stuff and immediately died again. I then saw the splash text that said it was another player that gunned me down and realized this guy was just camping my dead body so instead of turning off multiplayer i just durned off damage all together and went back. I just wanted to actually see him trying to shoot me.

I guess it’s totally fair what happened but it definitely took me by surprise, especially how fast he took me out each time. He was also being kind of rude by camping my grave but oh well i got my stuff back eventually.

Lesson learned, community planets aren’t exclusive to friendly players lol.
