Whilst I do not approve of cheating as such it is a game, it is testing and showing them areas to address. Sadly I found my ping isn't great and have enough trouble with group fights against pirate swarm, so I haven't tried star marine I have no interest in finding out I am dead before the screen uploads.

how do you cheat in a sandbox game?

there aren't any 'rules', by definition, only poor gameplay design by the devs

I've not so much got a problem with people cheating in the testing phase of the game - I'd rather people try these exploits and see what workarounds there are etc in a test environment, than having a load of day one hackers that completely ruin the game for people once it's released. As such, banning people during alpha doesn't make much sense.

I hope that kinda makes sense? Like, I'd rather have a session of mine ruined by people where there's no real loss or gain to them or myself, rather than have someone suddenly explode some poor first time players head from across the universe - that's the kind of shit that will kill communities.
