Gun turret |
Gun turrets are defensive structures and are the first automatic defense to be unlocked. They use magazines for ammunition which can be refilled manually or by inserters. Unlike laser turrets, they do not require power and can operate practically anywhere as long as they have sufficient ammunition. On the downside, this means that ammo must be periodically replenished.
The gun turret has the same fire rate as the human-portable submachine gun. Physical projectile damage (research) upgrades both the base damage of the ammunition and the damage of the turret as two separate, multiplicative bonuses, quickly leading to a much higher damage output than the SMG.
Inserters can insert and remove magazines from gun turrets. This allows chaining multiple turrets together with inserters, each inserter taking ammo, as needed, from one turret and placing it into the next. Inserters will only insert up to 10 magazines per turret.
Gleba
- Strafers can outrange the turrets, and are quite durable as they have small resistance to physical damage.
- Stompers negate more than half of recieved damage. Combined with their high health pool, gun turrets are not the best choice against them.
Vulcanus
- The local fauna can get their segments damaged from the turrets, allowing huge turret blocks to be very effective against the small and even medium variants.
