Turrets are shooting me?
Please refrain on spoiling any possibly story related plot for me - but I could swear turrets didn't use to shoot me on sight.

I relied pretty heavily on them early in the game, but now they are basically suicide. Is there a way to stop targeting me? It is absolutely infuriating spending scrap to repair a turret, only to be shot dead by it immediately after.

Again, no spoilers please!

You can hack turrets. If you do they will only target enemies.

So they always shoot you on sight, and I just got lucky earlier in the game?

No. It will be explained in the game.

Look at your status menu. There is a lil explanation. Also... hear what turrets say.. typhon material etc.

Not really a story spoiler at all, since it says it right in the... Status menu, I think it's called?

Either way, the one that spells out in text just what those little status-effect symbols actually mean. That menu.

Anyway, it means you've dipped too heavily into the alien neuro-mods, and the security systems are tagging you as a typhoon.[/spoilers] It's basically the main trade-off for doing that.

It's a mechanic that's easily missed, though, so can't really blame you for feeling confused about it.

Thanks for all the tipps! Helped a lot!

I also just realized there is a tiny light on top of the turrets that indicates wether they are friendly or not.

you can always gloo gun them and run behind them so they can not attack you. When you feel safe enough you can hack them and they will be friendly again
Remember that line Alex said to you in the beginning of the game? we will shake things off, like old times

they'll shoot you if you have typhon abilities.

Also, you'll have been warned about this quite clearly, unless you killed January very early on, in which case I believe Alex takes over the task of telling you about it.
