Turrets

I have noticed that the reactors of the turrets get depleted rather quickly, and after only two shoots they begin firing only one of their two guns. I have tested this with particle and meson guns.

This halves the firepower of turrets, and even if you can afford a better reactor you cant change the one in the turrets.

Maybe the best solution for this is to give a slightly better reactor to turrets?

I'm going to try to bind the turret reactor level to the reactor level of the parent unit.

You can try to bind the radar too if you can.

So what else do we want to bind? This is a fairly extensive change in the VS code, so I have to clear it by the experts.

I wanted to say that turretradar= mainradar and turretreactor=mainreactor/numberofturrets. (This gives the player the option of, say, deciding to carry 1 turret only on their Galaxy in order to put big guns on it).
