mlieTurret Extensions Mod is a powerful framework and gameplay enhancement mod that fixes several vanilla turret issues, improves turret behavior, and enables advanced turret mechanics through XML without requiring C#.
Turret Extensions Features
The Turret Extensions Mod introduces multiple improvements and framework capabilities:
Vanilla Fixes and Improvements
- Fixes inaccurate cooldown and warmup stat readouts.
- Prevents pawns from always facing south when manning turrets.
- Fixes siegers using incorrect shell types.
- Manned turrets now use the operator’s Shooting Accuracy and Aiming Time stats.
- Displays damage amount and type for turret ammunition.
Framework Capabilities
- Manned turrets that factor in operator accuracy and aiming time.
- Automatic turrets that can be force-targeted like pawns.
- Force-targeting automatically cancels when the target is downed.
- Turrets with limited firing arcs instead of full 360° rotation.
- Upgradable turrets with customizable parameters.
All these features in the Turret Extensions Mod are implemented entirely via XML, allowing modders to create advanced turret behavior without writing C#.
