Ideas to make boarding parties work!

[Space Shaman]

A maneuvering AI:
It would also have settings that would make your ship mimic a larger ship and maneuvering to stay in place relative to a larger ship. This would allow players to drop over using the gravity of the first ship and board an enemy ship.

Having weak spots or gaps in shields over plexdoors would help to make entering more possible.

This would make stellar combat with large ships more interesting.

how about that?
we make a block that consumes energy for docking on ANY other block...this way you cuold make a boarding ship, that connects to the enemy. this way you could jump over and attack

It's still an excellent idea.

Like, ugh, seriously, dig a bit deeper into other suggestions before you go on doing it yourself... *sighs*

Pretty sure the devs confirmed that there will be grappling weapons.
