I have ballista around my base, when theres raid, is very nice, but when i want go cut tree, stone around base, i cant as ballista want kill me.
Please add button on ballista you can turn it off. So when i go gather, cut tree, i simple disable that balista and when i am back in base, then i again turn it on

+ increase capacity missile inside ballista, 20 i think is really low capacity. I had now sulfur raid and was so fast, balista spent all missile to hit 2 targets only

Of course best should be disable balista for friendly players and tamed animals, but if devs dont want it, then at least button on off and not always destroy and build
