[size=14pt]Description:[/size]
More Turrets aims to add a variety of more powerful turrets to the game. It includes a crafting system that requires you to build all the necessary components for each turret and a research tree. Newly added are controllable droids! They feature spanky hunch backed skins and randomly generated names (exclusive from the games own name generation).

[size=14pt]Disclaimer:[/size]
I will not be active on nexus mods anymore, so please head over to http://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=4372 for the updated mod.

[size=14pt]Features:[/size]
-Three new turret types, with many more to come.
-A complex crafting system

I have many plans for additional features, and will add to this list accordingly.

[size=12pt]Currently operational turrets are:[/size]
--Artillery Cannon - A large, devastating cannon that fires highly explosive rounds and is very accurate with a massive range. However, it has a long reload time and woe to the man stood next to it when it is destroyed.
--Gatling Laser - This laser cannon has the idea of getting a lot of fire down range and not really caring where it goes. Each indivudual bolt doesn't do a lot of damage, but with a constant long stream of them swarming out, pirates will be shredded in no time.
--Flak Cannon - This turret was originally designed to take down aircraft on Earth. With a little ingenuous engineering, it has be retrofitted onto a turret base and pointed at the pirates. Accurate and fast firing, it is an upgrade to the vanilla turret and will light up the pirates with ease (literally).

[size=12pt]Turrets I have planned:[/size]
--Bean bag launcher - usually used on civilian crowds, this turret can knock most pirates unconscious.
--Shotgun turret - for when enemies want to get close and personal.
--Pre-fabricated turret - Extremely quick to setup, this turret is perfect for shoring up defenses in the midst of battle.
--Stun cannon - this cannon is the perfect crowd control; it can stun large crowds of enemies and stop them from moving for that critical moment. Unfortunately, such concussive forces require time to prepare.
--Advanced CQC turret - The shotgun turret's big brother, this monstrosity has perfected the art of massacring pirates at close range.
--Sniper turret - perfect for dispatching the enemy from afar.

And more to come as I think of them. Feel free to leave suggestions if you like :D

[size=14pt]Droids:[/size]
These droids feature sparkling, original names. Each time a droid is built it is randomly assigned a two or three part nickname. The first is an adjective, the second an actual name, the third a title. No two droids will be a like. Each is also given a random childhood story, so don't forget to check those out, either.


[size=12pt]Currently operational droids:[/size]
--Household droid - built from haphazardly put together turret parts, this droid isn't capable of much. However, there's always need for housekeeping!
--Combat droid - perfect addition to the ranks, this droids advanced target acquisition gives it powerful capabilities on the field. However, it has a penchant for exploding when knocked down or too badly damaged.

[size=12pt]Droids I have planned:[/size]
--Brawler droid - Who needs weapons when one has perfectly good fists of steel?
--Growing droid - Organics always need food, and droids are here to provide.
--Crafting droid - Who said that droids creating droids was perverse? Because it isn't. Truly.
--Mining droid - Because organics are prone to being squished by cave-ins.

[size=14pt]How to:[/size]
-Research options unlocked after researching stonecutting and improved gun cooling
-Complete research, build components, build turrets, build droids.

If need be, I can write more indepth instructions in the research description ingame. Just let me know :)

The more advanced turrets use a lot of power, so a power mod like BetterPower+ might be nice to have.

I am also looking for someone willing to do some art for the mod, as I couldn't draw my way off a piece of paper. If you would like to do it, feel free to send me a pm :)
