There's already a post out there on how to create the sprites so that they look, from a setup perspective, like they belong in the game.

But is there guidelines for making the objects themselves fit, aesthetically, with the game? Material setups? Levels of noise in textures? General workflow tips?

Sounds like it would be more beneficial to change the game up a bit around my content instead of trying to implement the behavior that would make my mod unique

But for a completely new entity that would simulate base-like behavior, I'll have to write the whole thing from scratch and everything should be good, correct?

In this case, is there a way to get a turret to only attack a specific type of entity?

So if I want any turret-specific behavior that doesn't apply to all artillery, I'll have to write the script to get the behavior going?

Because really that was part of my plan - cloning/instancing parts or the totality of the Artillery class to create a separate artillery call that wouldn't ...

Anyone has any data, or knows where I can find in the game code how the artillery (or any turret, really) aims, specifically regarding the manual targeting? I have an idea for a mod but I'd need to understand that behavior to get it working properly.
