Can change the ownership of neutral / enemy blocks in survival

As of 06/06/2025, on 1.206.032 b0 (latest release on Steam)

TLDR: In Survival, accessing an enemy grid from any unowned/captured block allows you to transfer ownership of enemy blocks to yourself, or any allied faction, as if the block(s) were unowned.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start a new Empty World start, Survival mode

2. enable creative tools via Spacemaster (optional, makes it easier)

3. find NPC grids

5. disable creative tools

4. find a bed, couch... or hack a block

6. access grid controls via said block, select block owned by NPC, and attempt to change onwership

7. you will see that ownership can be re-assigned to self or any allied faction

Expected behaviour: should not be able to re-assign enemy blocks without first hacking them.

as far as i know it's exactly the same as this :

I'm aware that there was a previous bug where someone could use a neutral block to convert ownership of all blocks. And I know it was fixed. I have the same problem again in the latest version of the game.

At first I thought it was just an update to the PVE to allow easier grid takeovers provided there were no controlling blocks. This made sense while I was manipulating space wrecks. But I was able to do this kind of thing too easily with Factorum spawns and realized there was a problem.

By the time you resolve this bug I hope that you will bear in mind I don't like needing to grind every single block to be able to transfer control of blocks in the terminal. And because of this bug I can't really test how your intended PVE changes are working. I would certainly rather that I'm only required to capture a majority of control chairs and the AI blocks that are running the warships.

Hopefully you can find the exploit I'm describing and restore proper balance to the game.
