Upgraded Laser Turrets adds four powerful MK tiers to the vanilla laser turret, each with distinct green/blue/red/purple coloring and high-quality custom icons.

Features:
- MK1–MK4 progression with progressively higher health, range, damage modifier (4/8/12/20), and fire rate (cooldown 20/13/10/8 ticks).
- Improved energy storage, input flow limit, drain, and attack consumption per tier, allowing sustained fire even under fluctuating power.
- New recipes using tungsten plates, tungsten carbide, superconductors, supercapacitors, carbon fiber, ammonia, quantum processors, promethium asteroid chunks, and cold fluoroketone.
- MK3 and MK4 must be assembled in a cryogenic plant.
- Technology packs for each tier now include space science packs; MK3 adds agricultural and cryogenic; MK4 adds promethium science pack.
- Recursive mask tinting ensures consistent custom coloring across all turret animations.
- Fully compatible with vanilla laser damage technologies (no dynamic patching required).
- Requires the Space Age DLC.
