See attached image:
Because the icon has an arrow pointing down, it looks like the request is for the turret below the one actually being requested.

i would suggest this for the gun turret, didn't check any of the other ammo turrets tho:
Code: Select all
data.raw["ammo-turret"]["gun-turret"].icons_positioning =
{
{inventory_index = defines.inventory.turret_ammo, shift = {0, -0.25}}
}

I think it would be fair to maybe display the item request directly over the alt-mode display of the inventory, since gun turrets do only have one slot for inventory. If there were an item request for a different item than it currently contains, that would already be shown as an item removal + insertion request, which would combine with the X icon as well.
Not sure if that item positioning affects the alt-mode icon as well, though, which is why I mention specifically drawing it over it.

Ok, I moved it for the next release.
