Turret Limit Removal

[Jerran]

Hi guys, I havent played in a while and jsut noticed the 6 turret limit on my base for cannon turrets. Is there a way to change this or remove it? I tried googling it but the line it sys to edit in the dedicated.yaml file isnt anywhere to be found.

Any help would be great.

Cheers

What do you need more turrets on your base for?

[Jerran]

Large base needs more guns for protection. Also, why not?

Guess it makes sense in PvP to stop people from making inpenetrable fortresses and leave the defense partially up to the people defending the base.

For PvE and PvP it makes sense as it prevents you building 1 base and just plant the whole planet full of turrets. At the very least now you'd have to have some spacing between bases and put the maximum amount on each base.

For single player it should really be a menu/config option. If you want to go nuts, go nuts. As long as you got enough generators fuel and bullets to power the lot

i dont know the answer either but heres my opinion anyway

I'm curently building a really big CV. I doubt it will be able to be used in PVP, but it seems that despite the build size being very large, you can't actually make anything longer or wider or broader than what the turret limit will allow, because of the obvious fact that a set number of turrets cannot efficiently defend a really big structure.

So it's a restriction by default and therefore a nerf in what you can create.

I totally get the fact that the other end of the spectrum can result in too many turrets, but currently you are limited whether you like it or not and that is sadly restrictive. - not fun.

Just make seperate turret towers with there own core ....should be BP in the workshop for some...

shame that can't be done for CV's :/

shame no one has a direct answer for Op

Literally just want to know if theres a file I need to edit etc. Google says to edit a line in the dedicated.yaml file but that line doesnt seem to exist.

There is nothing that is going to be a threat your 6 turrets can't handle. Large base or small, it makes no difference, 6 is more than enough already.
You can also have HV's around your base, allowing for extra, mobile turrets if that's your wish. Build as many of those as you like and cover more area.

I was under the impression you can still put more turrets on, but just not save it as a BP.
If you already have a BP with more turrets then allowed and you want it in a single player game, just select "block limit for certain devices" to false if you are starting a new game. You can find this under the difficulty settings tab.

If you want to spawn a BP with more turrets then allowed in an existing game or on a server where you have admin rights, open the console and type "spawnanyblueprint" , that will allow you to spawn any blueprint regardless of what is in the blueprint.

Huh, could have sworn you can have 6 cannon turrets, 6 missile turrets, and ect...

[margalus]

I can have 30 turrets at my base.

Is there an option to disable the number of type of guns on any build on a dedicated server? I'm the admin.
Is the only option to spawn in over-the-max-number-of-turrets items?

It would be a setting in the yaml file, one that could of been set before starting the server. "block limit" or some such thing.
