I'm resurrecting the spirit of an old mod that never got past the alpha stage, hence '.6'. I liked the ethos of Better Turrets, but it definitely needed some work. And now we can make use of so many more mechanics than were available back then!

This is a very abbreviated prototype to gauge interest; it changes 'firearm' magazines to fire projectiles and accelerates laser bolts to the same speed. Things feel a bit more exciting with bullets and lasers flying around at a decent clip. Tell me what you think.

Lot of questions racing through my head. I'm gonna peel through the code for learning purposes. Really neat idea!

Edit: That "--" except next to the collision box thing is actually hilarious. I'm gonna go make shotgun turrets, brb.

If you can get them to work, I'll add them. Thing is, I really don't think it's possible right now.
