What if your railgun fired twice as fast and your laser artillery erased Demolishers in one shot? Fully standalone MK1–MK4 upgrades for railgun, rocket, and laser artillery turrets – boosting damage, fire rate, health, and resistances. No K2 or other turret mods required. So powerful you’ll want tougher enemies just to give them a challenge.
Mods introducing new content into the game.
Version: 2.1.0
Date: 2025-08-12
Changes:
- Completely independent from Krastorio 2 or K2_TurretsFixed; all three base turrets are now fully self-contained.
- Rewrote all turret stats, recipes, and technologies; balanced crafting times, planet/surface conditions, and material costs.
- MK1–MK4 upgrades now require specific planets: MK1 on Vulcanus, MK2 on Fulgora, MK3 on Aquilo, and MK4 on the space platform.
- Added `crafting-with-fluid`, `electromagnetics`, `cryogenics`, and custom recipe categories with automatic creation.
- Fixed rocket turret diagonal offset by restoring vanilla K2 sprites and animation setup.
- Dynamic ammo compatibility: railgun and rocket turrets use K2 ammo when any K2 mod is active, otherwise default to Space Age ammo.
- MK railgun and laser turrets are now omnidirectional; rocket turret retains its original sector behavior.
- Adjusted laser turret energy system: base energy 100MJ, buffer 200MJ, input 200MW, drain 100MW; scalable MK bonuses.
- Unified item weights, stack sizes, and added missing weight for base turrets.
- Added custom item, entity, and technology descriptions in both English and Chinese.
- Resolved Foundry combat category limitation for MK1 production.
- Overall code refactor and cleanup for better maintainability.
