Turret suggestion

Post by Peter1x9 »

I would like to be able to tell my turrets to switch between guns and tractor beams from the cockpit. I find it a bit annoying to have to climb back and forth to each turret (Galaxy) everytime I want to use tractor beams to reel something in after I finish a fight.

Maybe even do something with the Turret AI so that it knows to switch automatically to beams when you target cargo and switches back to guns when you target ships.

Rather than have them switch to tractor beams when the pilot targets cargo, have them switch to tractor beams when the pilot tells them to target cargo (alt-t). Small detail ;) Your suggestion would make things more convenient.

Something similar to how pirates switch to beams when they target cargo (even though the guns still fire occasionally ;) ). Could slip into 1.3, we'll see how things go.
