I always wondered if I could grab another person's blueprint from their base. I found this out the hard way.

A round of beskar blueprints came, and I grabbed one, and went to my workspace, but they were all full. All the droids were about 5+ hours from completion, so I just dropped the blueprint, and went to whacking the one by the astromechs.

Some guy was just waiting around my base, and then yoinked it. I couldn't kill him because he had the IG-11.

The next batch comes, and I grab another beskar droid. The workspace wasn't free, but it was close. What ended up happening was this weird song and dance where I whacked the droid a couple of times, and then grabbed the blueprint, all while this guy was stalking me around my base. He tried to get me to drop it by dropping crash pads on me. I eventually got the blueprint on the workspace.

I mean to me, it makes sense why there wouldn't be protections for blueprints in your base. Some guy could just start hogging them all; but how likely is this to happen out of malice? Then I started thinking about blueprints gained from missions or daily quests. Those could also get stolen, all because your workspaces were occupied with droid hours away from completion.

I also just think there's this unspoken rule where if someone grabs a blueprint, it's theirs, even if they're not protected. I rarely see people killing each other when a blueprint has been grabbed. Maybe beforehand when they're competing for the next one, but once it's grabbed, I don't see violence.

What do y'all think?
