In this rules update, the following rule has been added to Starbound: Settlement leaders may declare their settlements hostile to certain characters. The IC justifications for these declarations must be sufficient as determined by Staff. If a declaration is made on a character that is currently visiting the settlement, they must be escorted peacefully off of the settlement. (They may not be attacked unless they resist.) This list must be accessible in a publicly viewable way - for example, on a settlement forum or a leader's profile page. Any characters who visit a hostile settlement are subject to permanent death should they be fatally wounded. Powergaming to avoid this death will be punished extensively.
