Aliens killing transports without a demand is bad for gameplay

[Lythrilux]

I understand that Nomads making demands sounds silly, but it's necessary from a gameplay perspective. There is no other ID in the mod that can so freely kill transports without making a demand AND being able to do it in Caps. There's a reason why people are so abrasive to allow Xenos/Maquis gunboats to their IDs. There's a reason why Nomad incursions into the Houses were done with such rarity and exclusivity because that on a daily basis accessible by all players would kill trading.

Not only are both mining fields in Delta within breathing room of Lich, but Alien ships can just undock and instant-yeet any transport or miner that tries to create ambient activity with little-to-no risk or pushback, and can make a quick retreat to the base if it looks like things are coming to kill them. Right now, the way things are setup, is just not healthy for gameplay at all.

Yes, I can understand the necessity of some counter-play for Omicron mining (then again, there are plenty of human IDs with a range of reasons to disrupt a variety of ID'd mining ops) but this just isn't it, and it's neither fun or creates longevity.

tl;dr Nomad/Wild IDs should not be allowed to blow up transports without a demand, at the very least in the Edge Worlds. Something as simple as asking them to drop their cargo may be enough or asking them to leave the area.
