im not sure if jenniphurr updated them after the turrets were modified.
If not , that might be the problem. Its an old version not working anymore.

Why is it Every time i use this one i don't get a mini gun turret i get an obsolete Cannon turret. I have used the flak one and too its an obsolete cannon turret.

@merquetio its normal, empyrion devs made it that way to prevent people from using it the way it was meant to be.

Hey Jeniphurr, just dropped a couple of these turrets and no ammo was in the ammo bin! :(
Commander_Black 21 May, 2016 @ 9:33pm 
cant wait ^^
i got ideas but i cant seem to make em look as good as yours XD
im not an artist, im more of an engineer

@Arrawn To kind! Well I have been working on some buildings. I have a few going right now that combine to form a huge city! I also will be working on some smaller Survival bases. Stay tuned!
Commander_Black 21 May, 2016 @ 8:30pm 
ideas:
- Portable construction platform
- Portable healing/o2/cloning platform or shack or whatever
- Portable stash (small unit of cargo boxes without power, to act as pirate buried chest for safe
storage on ennemy territory or near dangerous mining operations)
- Portable emergency cooking area for the hunter on the run
- Portable Distress unit (mini bunker with lots of external lights to wait for rescue safely)

And tonz more of other units to be small, cheap and usefull to everyone in each their own ways and situations :)
Maybe make a collection of em, mark them as required items to each others so theyre easily found as long as you found 1 on the workshop :)
Commander_Black 21 May, 2016 @ 8:25pm 
XD i didnt do much, you had an awesome idea,
i gave my opinion and your final product became one of the most downloaded ^^
im really happy for you and i still use the turrets on most my bases and operations as theyre cheap and very usefull.
I would like to see more tactical buildings from zeroG, not only ships ^^

@(GER)JoJo_der_ernste Thank you for stopping by and trying out our ZeroG Turrets! Rate us up and Favorite Us for future builds!

@Arrawn Your input has been so helpful with these ZeroG Turrets! People seem to really like the ease of use of the depolyable turrets!
Jenniphurr  [author] 21 May, 2016 @ 6:57pm 
@Weevah Thanks for enjoying the ZeroG Turrets! So glad that your airfield is secure!

I consider this an essential component for my modular bases.

With 12kW idle power use it's ok to leave them on all the time.

Securing a small mountaintop airfield is my favourite use for it so far.

i established a base in a valley surrounded by mountains with only 1 ground entrances.
i placed thoses turrets on the mountainst on 8 cardinals positions n/s/w/e/ne/nw/se/sw.
then my whole village (8 structures with no weapons at all) got secured from incoming drones attacks. Also placed 1 on each sides of the 2 roads leading in my valley from the ground and it gave me a bad a$$ looking village with all the PVE protection needed.
Thanks to the Zero-G turrets :D
(didnt tested it in PVP but i guess with flak turrets instead of minigun it wouldve worked great)
Wish Granter 17 May, 2016 @ 2:58pm 
This is a very cool idea! I always was asking how to get this miniguns and other things away from my base to kill this discusting things in the near without letting my FLAK wasting its ammo now i got an good solution
Jenniphurr  [author] 27 Apr, 2016 @ 2:07pm 
@Arrawn Such excitement! So glad you are making great use of the Turrets! The Feedback is excellent in knowing we were able to help you in a pinch!

Thank you for choosing ZeroG for you needs!~

On the other side, for survival purpose:
Masperon, day 1 : land near zascosium mine, start minning and get drone-killed after 2 minutes.
Akua, day 2 : Mine the whole day to craft back your gear
Masperon, day 5 : Finally managed to re-craft your gear and get back to your mine. Start mining and after 2 minutes, get drone-killed.

No more !!!!
Masperon, day 1 : land near zascosium mine, deploy 3 turrets around the mine, take hours to mine in peace, listening to the sweet music of your turrets farming the incoming waves of drones, filling your pockets with their loot :D

Thank You ZeroG

Imagine youre on a pvp server. You grab your fastest and smallest hover and go tease the ennemy faction. They notice youve got no weaponry on that HV, so they get in their Tank and start chasing you. You lure them behind a small hill, jump out of your HV and within 3 seconds, open your inventory + access your factory + spawn this awesome Turret you've ordered a few hours ago.
They turn the corner, weapons loaded and ready to blow you up but......
They didnt see the deployable turret coming.
hahahaha i know i would be pissed and im sure alot will use that technic just to troll others.
Commander_Black 27 Apr, 2016 @ 7:50am 
hmm lets see.
1. 3 different weapons
2. combat ready
3. you even gave each of em a different awesome look

i dont see what else to add XD
they just look perfect to me :)

and youre welcome, it was a pleasure ^^
im definitely going to use em
Jenniphurr  [author] 27 Apr, 2016 @ 6:53am 
@Arrawn Your feedback completely reshaped this design! So much thanks I give to you. Also I updated each turret with ammo in each box and large fuel packs in each cell. They should be ready out of the box now. If you have anymore suggestions please feel free to let me know!
Again thank you for you help with these~
Commander_Black 26 Apr, 2016 @ 9:27pm 
hope they come with at least 1 power cell and a minimum of ammo to provide cover as i try to refill them after placement ^^

for thoses using em on the battlefield instead of strategic placement
Commander_Black 26 Apr, 2016 @ 9:26pm 
hell yeah hover bike :D
and stronger cockpits, i build a super tank the other day and it got 3 shots in the cockpit and i was done.... took em 15 minutes to finish destroying the hover, but 3 shots for the cockpit lol.

and yes it is the use i intend for the turrets, mostly drop in a hurry under fire. but also strategic placement while scouting around a mine to provide a safe triangulation as im mining afterward
Jenniphurr  [author] 26 Apr, 2016 @ 7:15pm 
@Goliyth I did make a hover version as well but I am not happy with the looks of it. It's too bulky for my tastes.

--Devs, you really need a small seat for hover and small vessal's. maybe even one like a motorcyle seat as well. I want hover bikes!
Goliyth 26 Apr, 2016 @ 7:10pm 
If i might be allowed, consider making them on a hover platform. A) Terrain isn't an issue - i.e. no need for flattner. B) Don't run into same problem when an emergency happens and you need to "insta drop" one while taking fire with no set-up time. Really nice design tho.
Jenniphurr  [author] 26 Apr, 2016 @ 7:00pm 
@Arrawn - I am on it! Give me a few and they should be up and going. I hope you find them useful as they are my first attempt at these.

I really wanted to make them look good and function well. Plus I didn't want them to make much of a footprint in the game world. I hope I was able to succeed in that matter.

Feedback is welcomed!
Commander_Black 26 Apr, 2016 @ 6:55pm 
^^ then i will suscribe to them all XD very usefull to deploy all around a zasco mine on masperon ^^
Jenniphurr  [author] 26 Apr, 2016 @ 6:49pm 
@Arrawn That sounds like a swell idea I am going to do that!
Commander_Black 26 Apr, 2016 @ 6:47pm 
you should post 3 models for people wanting to pre-build em and then spawn em when needed ^^

1 minigun
1 rocket
1 artillery

of course could be something else but in my opinion thoses are the basic no matter what type of defence is needed
