Just a small point of feedback. It only happens on very rare occasions, but it does happen nonetheless.
Someone from our Discord community had one of his crewmates follow a Pirate Legend (not part of their crew) down to the hideout. After realising he couldn't take the "portal" to the actual hideout, since the Pirate Legend wasn't part of their crew, he did not immediately return back to the Tavern, but spent some time down there. As a result, the staircase had reverted to its original state when he tried to run back up and the player got stuck under the staircase with no way out.
There's several ways one could escape that situation (blowing up a Gunpowder Barrel in the Tavern in order to kill the stuck player, voting the stuck player in the Brig), but they only work if there's more players in the stuck player's crew. And they only work if the rest of the crew figures these out.
However, if the player that happens to be stuck down there is a soloplayer, there currently is no way for him to return to his ship other than hoping a Pirate Legend shows up at his location to open up the staircase again.
Suggestion: Either make the "portal" to the hideout spawn you back at the Tavern if there's no Pirate Legend in your crew, or add some sort of a lever down the staircase to be able to open it from the inside.
