M56 Automated Combat Turret
The M56 Smartgun was a man-portable heavy machine gun with automatic targeting capabilities chambered for 10×28mm Caseless ammunition. It was notably employed by the United States Colonial Marine Corps. The M56 ACT was developed as a potential substitute for the UA 571-C, transforming the M56 into an automated turret. Even if proved to be less accurate than the standard UA 571-C it was reusable and faster to deploy, for that the M56 ACT was really appreciated by the USCMC.
There are 3 different variations of the turrets 2 are build-able in the workshop (one powered and one non-powered version) and add defense to the settlements that they are built in and the 3 type is a portable unit that can be deployed and then picked back up, out in the field, when needed. The third type can be made at the chem bench and is found in it's own listing "Aliens - Portable M59 ACT" The portable version is much different from the workshop version, in that it has a laser sight and a search light unit mounted to the M56. This will help in dark areas and the guns are best used in at least a pair.
Make sure you have a few thousand rounds worth of .308 ammo on you, or the turrets may not work when you go to throw them out. Each turret requires 1000 rounds of .308 ammo in order to be deployed.
The idea for this mod came from the game Aliens: Dark Decent and is not an exact recreation of the turrets used in it. The mod contains 2 separate ESP's that are flagged as esl's. One if for the Workshop version and one is for the portable version. This was done so that people could use one or the other or both types of turrets in their game. and since they are flagged as esl's they do not take up any space in your load order. There is also an optional download that will change all the turret stands in the game into the stands used in the Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare games, it does not have an ESP or an ESL and it is a simple mesh replacer. It is an optional download for those who do not want to change the vanilla turret stands, but the guns were all adjusted to use those stands, so if they do not line up the way you want them to, you will need to adjust them yourself.
First off I would like to thank everyone involved in allowing me to get this all put together and release it, they are the real rock stars and deserve the majority of the credit for everything. Since a number of different people were involved in making the assets used to put this mod together and they are the ones who deserve all the credit for it. I am just the humble mod author who put it all together and released it .
All credit and copyright goes to Activision and its respective companies for the Turret Stands that are used in this mod. They are taken from the game Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare.
The Turret stand was originally ported and animated by Oynlen, and M4k4rov and was used in the mod "Settlement Defense Systems". It is being used with their permissions. Thanks again Guys. :)
The M-56 Smartgun model was made by Vaskadar (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/35916) and ported to Fallout 4 by jsnider193 - iramike (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/37463) and was used with permission to make the weapon for the turret. Thanks again for allowing me to use another one of your weapons to make a mod with. :)
The original scripts, effects and idea for the mod were taken from a mod by Seanms1991 (thank you so much) and used with his permission. (https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/11465) and were modified by AlanaSP (without her help none of this would have been possible). Alana also did the majority of the ESP work on the Portable M56 ACT part as well. She truly is a Modding Goddess

The rest of the work was done by myself and I hope those who download everything enjoy it. A lot of trial and error went into getting this mod put together and working.
