Remote Release Flak Launcher Turret
So, how exactly does this work? I set the turrets for fire at will expecting they'd automatically fire on the thargoid swarm but I don't think they did anything.
Do I have to keep them in a fire-group?

Is there a turret version?

Yes, in a fire group, you must shot them manually, hold the trigger and release it in the right moment. They have a circle with three segments, those 3 segments must fill up and then there is a special sound, release.

The turreted variant is only for players in multicrew to use, otherwise it functions just like the fixed variant.

There's fixed and turret. I've seen how they work when firing manually, but I bought a turret version expecting them to fire automatically.

No, sry. Turret works only multicrew. Same with the Remote Release Flechette Launcher. :awswvara:

Other turrets have to be auto-fired by the ship right? Otherwise what's the turret firing options for...

Turrets are crap anyway, get fixed.

Well, in this case they have the same stats.
I know they're supposed to sacrifice DPS for more time on target otherwise.

It depends in which mode they are on your right panel :

Fire Ahead

Target Only

Fire at will


Most Anti-Thargoid weapons don´t have these automatic fire option.

Well that's the thing, I can put fire at will, but couldn't see any notice that the flak launcher can't use that setting.

They can´t.
If you want an Anti-Thargoid weapon with automatic firing, use AX-Multicannon turrets. :rynn_happy:
