Turrets
Range
Only when a turret/ship is within range to an enemy, it shoots.
Fire Rate
How often a ship fires. A fire rate of 0.10 means the turret is fired shots every 10 simulated days.
Turret Types
- Gatlings: Rapid fire at a short range, with low damage.
- Lasers: Constant damage at a short range, with a constant fire rate.
- Ballistic: Ballistic turrets have medium range and moderate fire rate.
- Snipers: Railguns have a long range, low fire rate but deal the most damage per hit.
Ideas for Presets
Gunboat: Swarmers
Agile gunboats equipped with gatling guns for rapid, close-range assaults.
+ Quick to strike with significant initial damage.
- Vulnerable to long-range attacks; best used in swarms for effectiveness.
Heavy Cruiser: Snipers
Robust cruisers with railguns, designed to make the first impactful hits.
+ Delivers powerful initial blows with railguns.
- Slower follow-up attacks due to the low fire rate; can be outmanoeuvred by swarmers.
