ANY SPRITES ARE WELCOME, BUT I WILL ADD MY OWN SOON
*also,can the price of illegal gun parts be lowered to 10 gold*
So, I was looking at the Otherworld GDC trailer, and the hoarde mode aspect, with the turrets, and I was thinking, it would be cool if we could have turrets like that in Terraria 1.3. However, I never bother to use turrets because they are expensive and you can't dodge.
TURRET MECHANIC v#1
They work similar to dart traps, set them up to wire and a switch and they will fire. (No timer needed)
However you will have to load the turret.
You can do this via left clicking, then an ammo slot will appear just under the inventory. (Completely seperate to the regular ammo)
Place the required ammo into the slot, then the turret will fire once the switch is flicked. The turret will stop once the ammo has been all used up.
This mechanic will also be used for existing turrets, such as cannons, bunny cannons and snowball launchers.
(I also think that turrets should have unlimited amounts of the basic ammo if connected to an ammo box. )
Flamethrowers - gel
Xbow - wooden arrow
Gun - musket ball
Rocket - rocket I
ALTERNATE TURRET MECHANIC SUGGESTION:
You craft a 'turret base' out of 15 iron bars.
Then you left click on the base and put a ranged weapon into the 'weapon slot' (which will appear under the inventory), then set up the turret as you would in method 1.
(turrets can only use repeaters, pulse bow, tsunami, shotbows and stake launchers as arrow turrets)
Turret damage and crit chance will be the same as if the weapon was in your inventory
If you remove the turret, the weapon will be returned into your inventory, seperate to the turret stand.
You will still be able to angle the turret with a right click.
CRAFTABLE TURRET TYPES FOR V1
I hope you like the suggestion
Let me know in the poll!
Also if you have any sprites (especially for the stand) they will be greatly appreciated !
