Abillity to set range of turrets

Post by pondohou »

TL;DR
I want to be able to change the range of turrets (up to regular maximum for the turret)

What?
I want to be able to reduce the size of the range of turrets, maybe with a shortcut + scrollwheel.

Why?
Right now when designing ships, i have to put turrets in odd places to have them not shoot too early, or things i don't want shot, wasting ammo. Which can be deadly in space. I'd like to be able to put the turret more conveniently without compromising ammo.
I feel punished for getting the range upgrade on the railgun. (yes i could just not get it)
for the rocket turret, part of the design is that an area around it is vulnerable, for such turrets, the space around them that is vulnarable should not change when the range is set.
This kind of option feels natural to factorio, filters, circuitlogic, etc, It feels fair that i would be able to customize range in this way.


Thank you for this wonderful game!
