NPC's open doors when "Anyone Can Open" setting is disabled. Airlocks venting at trade staions

I have built a "parasite" ship to magnetically connect to the connector of a station within the safe zone. There is an airlock above the connector, so NPC's can easily pathfind through the airlock and into the grid. There appears to be no way to prevent the NPCs from opening and closing the doors at random, other than depowering the doors entirely.

I understand that NPCs need to be able to open doors within trade stations, and the current implementation of their path finding may need to have higher privileges to achieve their simple goals. Perhaps they can have their permissions limited to their NPC faction grids to prevent them from opening player doors that are not made public.


I was not expecting to have the NPC opening my airlock doors over and over and over, venting my stored oxygen. If disabling the "Anyone Can Open" setting prevents this behavior in the future, that would be perfect.


Thanks for your time
