Modifying the values is easy, the issue is when the mod updates steam will overwrite your changes. You can use RimPY to make like a fixed modpack outside steams reach after using steam or whatever to dl all the mod.

No worries, take your time and release it when you think it's ready :-). It's not like there's a shortage of turrets to pick from as is.

That is the plan. It was originally going to have a new 'railgun' wall turret released with it, but I've been having issues with how it looks in-game. I was hoping it'd be a quick fix but its been a bit hard to sort out. :S

Is the Large Wall Turret Base research project included in preparation of upcoming content? It doesn't show any actual unlocks.

@Honey badger Thanks a lot, amazing mod :)

Hello, thank you for this new version ! But is it possible to add the options to "remove" the barrel replacement (so give infinite ammo) to the turret like the v1 ?

@Uru | Deo

Super easy. I have zero programming knowledge. Its all XML and the format is self explanatory. I would recommend you make a local copy of the folder (There's an option in game under the 'Advance' button) so every update doesn't wipe what you've got (Though keep in mind if I make a new patch / turret, then you'll have to update!), then in the folder:

1.6 > Defs > ThingDefs_Buildings > There's a whole list of XML files in there, it will all be self explanatory just by reading it, I've left notes in there mainly for myself but you might find them useful for justification why I did one thing over another, or what something does.

@honey Badger how difficult is to a normie(have some knowledge in programing tho) like me to change some values in the turrets?

I agree with not removing the build materials.

Please don't remove build material selection, the clutter is worth making all of these out of self-repairing materials.

Also, any chance of adding config options to the mod? I used to keep a local copy of the previous version with custom values, it'd be great if those could be tweaked in game instead.

I think you should get rid of the material type and instead just have alternative versions of it in subcategory to pick the kind of wall turret you want to build in the menu. it clutters the thing very much if im being honest.

Not at this moment of time.

Is it compatible with CE?

I've added 5 new turrets: 3 charge, a firefoam, and a toxbomb launcher turret, alongside a new research tab. :)

So, dunno if a mod conflict or not. Everything works fine otherwise, but my stun turrets aren't stunning XD I bet it's my no friendly fire mod doing it. Got tired of snipers killing my melee with headshots. I'd wager it's that mod specifically causing it even if normal shots still kill prisoners. Could be an incompatibility and worth saying here so nobody thinks it's the mods fault or broken.

Thank you! I've got a few ideas planned and working on as I type! :)

These turrets very much came in handy for me in my Odyssey playthrough, if it weren't for these I think I would've had a lost playthrough.

I always liked this mod for the prison control alone, but now with Odyssey and its space-limited gravships it's become even more awesome. Lets us mount a whole lot of firepower on the hull without needing to expand the ship's floor space. Still not enough to deter serious raids, but certainly a huge help. Keep up the good work! :-)

Omg thank you! Epic mod provided, and epic solution to the only issue i've had. My cat killed the prisoners after being locked in with them, nasty bugger. Don't know how it got in, doors were blocked by a wall.

Yeah! Get this mod here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2602436826

It makes turrets attack prisoners, including WMT :)

Okay my plan to use the stun turrets in the prison failed. 4 turrets, in range, ignored the prisoner attacking them XD I'm sure there's a mod that changes that. Still love the idea. Prison breaks are still a slaughter. My fault, pawns have incendiary weapons.

After some thought i realised, if a fire that big actually did hit the ship, odds are there'd be no oxygen left anyway and everything would be destroyed in the fire. Thinking with immersion, if the fire is big enough to scare a vampire away, it's going to be too much to put out and time to hit the escape pods. Still, it'll be a great addition.

A firefoam wall turret is on my to-do list! I just need to make it and get textures for it!

For the time being you'll have to settle with the vanilla one or firefoam poppers unfortunately. ^^"

Was going to say it's just missing a tranq gun, but then i saw the stun turret. Now it's just the utility of a firefoam turret, think a VE mod has it. But really, that's just for lazy people or vampire colonies. So worth it.

Glad you like it @Nimn - I think I chose a good time (by pure coincidence no less!) to remake this mod in time for Odyssey. :)

Just saying, you're a legend. As cool as big guns look, gravships are limited in space and i can't put turrets inside at risk of clogging the ship. This is a must have.

I released a small update that should let you build these turrets over stuff like tables and chairs and what not, IT MAY BE JANKY so please don't go hunting me down if it doesn't look super clean!

I'll keep it in mind, I'll say outright its very likely not something I could do at my skill level, but hey, maybe I could enlist the help of someone who knows how to make this work in the future. :)

The VFE dazzle effect would be a bonus for sure. Just purely for aesthetics, Moonlight mod makes maps rather dark at night, having sweeping searchlight beams coming from the hull would look cool.

What would you envision the searchlight doing? First thing that comes to mind is I think VFE which had a searchlight turret that gave a sort of blinding effect to slow enemies down?

Your notes seem reasonable, the dmg nerf with reduced power draw is acceptable and helps keep regular vanilla turrets competitive. If I had a wishlist, it would be a wall mounted searchlight to mount on my ship hull.

Thank you! Always happy to take feedback on the balancing part, I recognise I probably went a bit overboard (or underboard) in some areas. :)

A new version of wall turrets, with better graphics and better balance? Excellent work my lord.

Hello Honey Badger. That's an interesting mod.
So I created a mod " Wall Mounted Turrets Version 2_zh
 " that adds a Chinese translation for your mod and published it on the workshop. Thank you for your contribution! Keep on keeping on!

(Unless I'm completely misunderstanding and you're just wanting a retexture of the mini, autocannon, uranium slug, and rocketswarm turrets)

I could, though I don't think I ever did because mods like VFE: Security existed and that seemed to have a better grasp on standard turrets than I ever did:

But as for the newer turrets we have here, some of the turrets I made here were a mixture of weapons that's already in the game but on turrets to suit this mod. The incendiary, shotgun, charge, and EMP turrets are examples, as for others:
- The mini wall turret is just a less-ranged, higher burst mini turret
- Sniper turret is a retextured, smaller and compact uranium slug turret
- Rocket turret is just a less manual form of the rocket swarm turret
- Stun turret was a remake of the stun wall turret from Mlie's version

I'll keep it on the backburner and maybe if a lot of people want it, I'll consider it more, but right now its not something I see as something that would be providing anything "new", but I dunno maybe the community will think I'm wrong on this. I did want to at least add some more stuff to this mod first. :)

I love the new turrets your mod adds, but it would be nice to have standard ground mounted version of the new styles as well so everything feels vanilla friendly?

Love the new textures, looks fun, thanks!

@Honey Badger
Honestly, this mod makes ship defenses so much fun... Thank you so much! <3

That seems a bit out of scope for what I can do unfortunately. If power is a concern, you could always turn the turrets off manually and then turn them on just incase (Or hook them up to a power switch?)

Is it possible to make Concealable Turrets that turn on upon detecting enemies? Cuz that'd be cool for my Mountain Base and Airlock

This is not CE compatible at this time, sorry!

does it work with CE?

You're welcome! @preciousplum

Badass man thanks for the mod

You sure did Haderoth! Thanks again!

Oh yeah I made them sprites

@Honey Badger; 'eyyy looks nice!

@Unexpectedwalrus @Yellowdotchunk I've pushed an update, could you guys check if it works? :)

@Honey Badger Honestly, I think the mod is a really good mod and when the update of Reel's Turret Pipeline is in, it's gonna be stronger together. I hope this gets updated often.

@Unexpectedwalrus I think I've got it patched and working on my end, I'll push an update out soon when I do some other testing for other stuff. :)
