Defences

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.

Anti Ship Defence

Gatling Turrets, or Missile Turrets may be placed around the ship to defend it against, well, you.
As of v.1.027 (list), the Gatling Turrets and Missile Turrets are functioning and will shoot you if you have a decoy block placed on your ship.

Anti Personnel Defence

Interior Turrets may be found inside the ship to defend it against personnel.
as of v1.23 (list), these are not yet enabled.
