Description
This mod is a modified version of "Homemade Sentry Turret" ( https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1742953520 ) by Rectus. I modified it so that it now replaces baseball bat. So, in other words, as long as a campaign has baseball bat, no matter if it's an official campaign or custom campaign, it will spawn.

Animated image preview:


Some changes:
  • Replaces Baseball Bat Baseball bat is replaced by this one (but actually it's still a baseball bat).
  • Laser Shot: Now it shoots laser that burns zombies.
  • Infinite Ammo: It has infinite laser ammo.
  • 360 degrees of horizontal & vertical rotations: As it has a floating turret, now it can shoot zombies from any directions
  • Deployable on any kinds of ground: Now it doesn't require flat grounds to deploy.
  • Longer range to deploy: Now you can deploy it slightly farther.
  • Impact Resistance: It won't be thrown away easily when there's explosion or impact nearby.
  • A cfg file to configure zombie aggro range on the sentry turret.


As this mod is now a standalone mod, it no longer requires "Custom Weapon Base" to make it work properly. So, just enable this mod, & sentry turret will be ready to use. To spawn it, just type "give baseball_bat" on console, & this one will spawn instead.

Have fun.

It's work and pretty useful, especially for survival,

the only problem(despite I'm sure it's user fault, not modder fault), is if you put too much then it would be forced close(more than fifteen I think?).

@★ CrossGun ★ , crash because of spawning too many objects is unavoidable, as even other turret mods or custom weapon mods will also cause crash if too many turrets/ weapons are spawned. The only way to prevent crash is by removing after using. This turret won't crash as long as you don't spawn too many. Probably 5-10 turrets per map are still safe.

Will this break the game like the old one if you spawn too many turrets in a single map? I haven't experienced it yet with this but I did on the old version.

@VendibleGoose , did you host a server or play Singleplayer? If you host a server, other people also need to have this mod enabled in order to allow them to deploy the turret. I just tested recently & it worked.

Alternatively you can try this alternative turret mod: Gnome Magic Turret . This one doesn't need many requirements & doesn't use custom models so it uses basic L4D2 models, so it won't cause errors even when hosting a server.

It cannot be deployed onto the ground for some reason

@VendibleGoose , what doesn't work? It can't be deployed on the ground or something else?
Serial Designation N 27 Apr, 2024 @ 4:55pm

@ Inoraki [۩] , you can try again, as I just updated this one to be a standalone mod, & fixed some bugs. Now this mod doesn't need custom weapon base, & once you enable this mod, sentry turret is ready to use..

Im sorry late reply by the means that it dosent work i ment that it dosent place down like it only repeats the animation when placing it down only the flamethrower works
