Tek Turret

The Tek Turret is a fully automatic turret which can automatically target and fire on enemy dinos, players, both, or all (which includes wild dinos) within its range, but does not target explosives such as s, s and s. The fact that the turret does not need any guidance makes it an invaluable resource to defend against raiding, whilst your tribe is offline.

This turret uses as ammo. The Tek Turret requires electricity from a to run. It is an upgraded version of the.

Overview
Turrets can be customized to attack players, tamed creatures, and/or wild creatures. Turrets can also be set to a custom range. Turrets can also shoot above and below — assuming they have a line of sight of the target — making them a good defense against flyers. The Tek Turret can also be set to exclude which dinosaurs you do not want it to shoot at.

Range
The Tek Turret has multiple range settings, which correspond to the following distances:


 * Low: 20 meters (approx. 6 foundations)
 * Medium: 53 meters (approx. 14 foundations)
 * High: 81 meters (approx. 20 foundations)

Targeting
There are six targeting settings. (All of these settings ignore survivors and tamed creatures belonging to your tribe and alliances.)


 * All Targets: Attacks players, tamed creatures, and wild creatures.
 * Players & Mounted Creatures: Attacks players and creatures mounted by a player.
 * Players & Tamed Creatures: Attacks players and tamed creatures.
 * Only Players: Attacks only players.
 * Only Wild: Attacks wild creatures.
 * Only Tamed Creatures: Attacks tamed creatures.

Alarm
The alarm setting will give intruding players time to leave the area before they are shot at. Alarms take some time to reset, so if the intruding player hides within the turret's range, they will be shot at immediately without another alarm.


 * 4 Second Warning
 * 2 Second Warning
 * No Warning (default)

Note: The warning doesn't delay the projectiles shot.

Exclusion/Inclusion Targeting Settings
Tek turrets are special compared to any other turret, they have the option to select which dinosaurs/animals the turret will shoot at. If the turret is set to exclusion mode, whatever creature(s) you put in the exclusion list will NOT be shot at by the tek turret. If the turret is set to inclusion mode, whatever creature(s) you put in the list will be the ONLY creature(s) the tek turret will shoot at.

Level Targeting Settings
Similar to the exclusion/inclusion targeting settings, the tek turret can also be set to shoot at a specific level category (ex: it can be set to shoot at only creatures between levels 50 and 100).

Damage Multipliers

 * As of patch 231.4, turrets do 2.2x damage vs. all dinos.

There is no longer any separate multiplier for flying dinos.

Engram
The Tek Engram is unlocked by killing the Broodmother on alpha difficulty.

Placement Restrictions
As of 242.0, the Tek Turret can no longer be built on Quetzal, Brontosaurus, Mosasaurus, Plesiosaur, or Paracer platform saddles. Any existing turrets on such platforms will no longer fire. This is a server option of "OverrideStructurePlatformPrevention=true". Otherwise they're now only allowed on Rafts and non-moving Bases.

There is also a limit of 100 turrets that can be placed within a 10000 UE-unit (~33.3 foundations) radius. This applies to the combined total of all s, s, s, and. This number can be raised in server settings. This check is done on a turret by turret basis, so different numbers will show up depending on how far away turrets are from each other.If a limit is exceded,turrets will still shot but wont be able to be replaced if removed or destroyed.Start your turret defense from the middle,then go on each side and expand. The turrets in the middle will be at 160/100 and the outer ones around 100/100-110/100.
