I am in a PBW game where i was blockading the AI's planets, and i set all my ships to "don't get hurt" and there were no combat notices
Once a blockade is established, the ships in orbit will not start combat again unless you give them the Attack order. Combat only starts if another ship (or fighter or drone) enters the sector. I think combat will also start if the planet launches fighters, drones, or satellites, but AFAIK there's no way to get a weapon platform to start combat against the blockaders.
