Adds 8 (15 counting variations) new turrets for dealing with alien menace, as well as other military-related items. Good compliment to mods that add new biter types, like Rampant or Natural Evolution.
Adv. Heavy MG Turret is reporting 600 max health vs. its predecessor Heavy MG Turret's 1500 max health. Presumably this is a bug and it isn't an intentional loss of durability.
It is intentional. Advanced mount isn't supposed to be better than regular one, just different, so basic model isn't obsolete. Regular mount makes for tough front line with high HP, while advaned mount can be placed further back, where it is less likely to take damage, and still fire away with its extended range.
Gotcha! Thanks for clarifying. We've been using these in a multiplayer game with tough Rampant + Bob's Enemies biters and very much appreciate the extra firepower and durability--your most recent rebalancing made them very appealing!
A suggestion: rename basic variant to Reinforced X Turret and Advanced to something like Stabilized X Turret.
That will make naming more intuitive about variant distinctiveness rather than direct upgrade.
