* [[Auto mortar]] {{RoyaltyIcon}} - defends [[Mechanoid cluster]]s. Always hostile, never needs rearming. Fires a projectile like the mortar but is otherwise more similar to the other mechanoid turrets.

Upon taking lethal damage, turrets will explode (doing damage), destroying most objects around them. The explosion radius is three units. This explosion will instantly destroy any sandbag in the vicinity.

The explosion is not pretty, it can destroy a good game quick.
 
 
 
 
 
new experiment:
 
The explosion does 300 damage to nearby structures, 100 damage to sandbags and damage to humans ranges from 48-72(experimental) this is divided under the bodyparts.
 
 
 
old experiment:
 
I set up a little experiment, to test the damage and explosion radius.
 
Building up an 11x11 square of sandbags, with a turret in the center, I placed 4 colonists around the turret and had them shoot the turret. This allowed me to get a look at the explosion radius, and damage of the explosion.

Turrets are automatic defenses that fire at enemies within range. They require power to operate, and after firing require reloading or barrel changes that consume resources; this cost is dependent on difficulty.

There are six constructable varieties:

  • Mini-turret - weak and short ranged but small and cheap. Uses the mini-turret gun. Also found defending faction bases.
  • Autocannon turret - powerful and fast firing with a medium range and cost. Uses the autocannon.
  • Uranium slug turret - slow firing and costly but with very high damage, range and accuracy. Uses the uranium slug cannon.
  • Foam turret - an unmanned but pawn-activated turret that automatically targets and fires firefoam at any fires in range.
