g You can set turret priorities?

"The ballista will prioritize shooting high health targets like spawners and worms?"

How'd you get this to work? I'd love to be able to adjust the priorities of some modded turrets so that they don't just shoot the closest thing.

See the attack_parameters properties:

Notably I used:
rotate_penalty
health_penalty

It is unclear to me what values are good for these variables, but I just used some random values and it seemed to work well. I used a value of 1 for the rotate penalty and -1 for the health penalty.
