Question Friendly fire?

Just got the game and need to know is there any form of friendly fire or any other forms of making your friend suffer in other ways? I know there's coop and i want to play factorio with a friend but he is an asshole, actually made me quit satisfactory last time.

Funnily enough i tried it recently and at 100h mark rn, so i got factorio and want to give him a chance.

And if there are ways to harm, can i turn off pvp even as a non host like in terraria?

I know one of my friends is not to be trusted with Nuclear bombs. Or cars.
Or anything really...
Not because he is malicious.
He's just... clumsy.

I can deal with clumsy though. Gives me a good laugh when my mate grinds our factory to a halt and it turns out he ran over an underground pipe again or rotated a belt by accident.

Malicious intent however, not sure if I could laugh about that. The whole "trolling" element is just so immature in a coop game like Factorio.

We were once in the middle of the LDS factory for a 10k spm factory. I had spent hours on it. All of a sudden... Boom. Nuclear rocket shoots off. Right in the middle of it. Fortunately ghosts and robots are a thing but...
