The rocket turret is a powerful defensive building capable of firing rockets and explosive rockets at high range. It is unlocked with agricultural science packs which can be crafted on Gleba. The rocket turret has a minimum range, so it is best paired with other turrets that can pick off enemies who get too close. Its high range and damage make it particularly effective against large asteroids in space and stompers on Gleba. To maximize the turrets effectiveness the player should ensure the turret is facing the general direction you wish for it to fire once placed, as its' rotational speed is fairly slow.

Notes

  • Rocket turrets can fire all kinds of rocket ammo, including Atomic bombs and Capture bot rockets. However, when firing atomic bombs, rocket turrets do not get the usual range increase that the hand-held rocket launcher or Spidertrons get. This means the turret will be very close to or inside of the blast radius.
