How to reload a deployed robotic turret ?

[Samseng Yik]

The only thing I see are these steps :
- pick up the turret
- select the turret to put at hand
- press reload
- deploy the turret again

That's the only way, there's no remote reload for it. Keep it in your tool belt and leave the slot empty when you've deployed it so that it's easy and quick to pick up, reload and deploy again.

OK so another way to have non stop fire-power during combat is
- i put extra turret at my belt.
- when I pick up existing turret for reload purpose, I immediately place down the extra turret

Yes, that is very viable and effective way of using turrets, and if you max your Robotics Inventor perk you can have two robotic turrets placed at the same time doubling your fire power or you can put sledge turret at some strategic spot where it can bonk the zombies and junk turret then chews them up.
Like Malcom said drum mag mod is awesome in junk turret since you don't need to reload that often, also recommend full auto mod (faster fire rate & more damage) and using AP ammo if you can craft it. Also Rad Remover and Cripple 'Em mods are great in junk turrets at higher game stages when you have a higher tier turrets with more mod slots.
