Robotic Turret

[meow]

i have a robotic turret but the only thing i can do with it is place it somewhere or pick it up. ive tried the wire tool but theres no option to connect it. how do you get these to work??

Robotic turrets don't use electricity. You have to have the level of intellect that will allow you to use it.

are we talking the junk turrets or the smg / shotgun turrets ?

Junk do not need power just load some ammo into it and it is good to go.

Smg / shotty needs power + ammo so you need a generator and connect that to the turret generator having fuel - motors and be turned on ofc.

pretty sure you can use the junk turrets without int. spec but can only place 1 without putting points int. tree.

You're right, my bad.

1) Place the Robotic Turret in your tool belt
2) Get some ammo for it
3) With the Turret highlighted in your belt like any other gun, press the reload key (you might need to bring up the ammo-selector wheel if you got fancy ammo for it)
4) You can use the turret like any other gun, or you can place it. As long as it's gun barrel is moving then it has ammo and will shoot if its red laser touches a target. If it's barrel is down then pick him back up, reload, and replace.

If you'd like to rely on these turrets for Horde, then a good idea is to place several of them near you. When they run out of ammo they won't count towards your "control 2 turrets max", so another nearby turret will wake up and start shooting. You can reload and replace downed turrets while the others cover for you. Don't forget to give each of them names (Gru's minions were Stuart, Kevin, Bob, Dave, Phil, Tim, Carl, Jorge, Jerry; but I guess it's up to you).
