If the answer is something like that the turret has 2 fluid boxes, one for the connection and one for the flame, and fluids in the second box get lost then that would be all the explanation needed.

Personally, I would prefer laser turrets, gun turrets, and flamethrower turrets to be all the same color because in my mind these defensive structures all serve the same purpose.

That would make walls much less interesting to look at from the map.

Not to say green is a bad color for lasers.

Personally, I would prefer laser turrets, gun turrets, and flamethrower turrets to be all the same color because in my mind these defensive structures all serve the same purpose.
