If anyone has a good idea, where to place the ballistic missile defense system in the Space Age tech tree, I'll listen.

Its been a while since I tested the original mod, so I don't remember the details very well... but, one thing I thought was not a good choice was his removal of the original rocket turret.

I even thought of modifying the mod for my own use but gave up the idea. But now, since you are asking, here are some of my suggestions:

Basic Missile Defense
- Unlocked: [New Research] after "Rocketry"
- Area: 45º * - Range (min): 5 * - Range (max): 18 * - Shooting Speed: 0.1/s *

Advanced Missile Defense
- Unlocked: [new Research] after "Basic Missile Defense" + "Space Science Pack"
- Area: 90º * - Range (min): 10 * - Range (max): 27 * - Shooting Speed: 0.25/s *

Rocket Turret (default keeps space age stats)
- Unlocked normally on Gleba + "Advanced Missile Defense"
- Area: 360º * - Range (min): 15 * - Range (max): 36 * - Shooting Speed: 0.5/s *

Ballistic Missile Defense
- Unlocked: [New Research] after "Rocket Turret" + "Artillery"
- Area: ? * - Range (min): ? * - Range (max): ? * - Shooting Speed: ? *

Yeah, funnily enough I set the ballistic missile defense after artillery and rocket turret now

yeah.. I saw that... I even thought of including a fulgora tech or push it to aquilo... but that depends on how much better it is compared with the Rocket Turret.

I think whatever this mod (original or fork) does, needs to integrate the space age turret because that is balanced. And build the other turrets around it, like I suggested.

It has progression and doesn't break balance.

lol, I considered to make it a complete inner planets tech too. But fulgora already has tesla turrets and since the ballistic defense system is a hybrid of rocket turrets and artillery it didn't make for a good lore reason to include fulgora too.

Btw, with the now new ballistic tungsten missile, you just need 6 launchers to one hit big demolishers.
