Disable construction near enemies/fire

[Ranakastrasz]

At a thought, use the same logic as character health regeneration. If damage is taken, wait x time before repairs are permitted. Say 10-30 seconds after the most recent damage.

Somehow I feel the solution to this should involve the circuit network.

If it would be possible to detect 'an attack' in a given area of a roboport this could maybe be done using circuits properly. However this would mean you have to take out the repair packs from the roboport, which is a bit cumbersome too.

It is possible (but very, very clumbersome) to detect when turrets fire currently.

A lot is possible, but most solutions feel tacky and more like hacks or are just not practical at all.
Not really at the quality level of an engineer who launches a rocket.

True. It takes a lot of wiring to detect when gun turrets fire, a bit of wiring for flame turrets, and a whole heap of mess for laser turrets.
