Lightweight Capable Weapon System

!![issue fixed, you may now swap turrets, surprisingly on my end, it seems to work properly on my end and only corrects swapped turrets, existing turrets from sub designs are unaffected or stays as is]!!

The Lightweight Capable Weapons System is a "small" but more like medium sized turret that fills the gap of heavier weaponry on slots that cannot be swapped out for flak or railguns, while it's certainly up to par with them or even better in certain cases, it's downsides may pose to be an issue to some with inefficient power consumption, expensive ammunition and low ammunition box sizes. While it may need those things, the weapon is most certainly user friendly with a low weapon skill requirement in order to wield it thanks to electro-optical assistance on target acquisition helping the user manage tracking and aiming.

P.S. Absurdly unbalanced to vanilla, and as always, my sprites are free to use for everyone as long as you don't hit me back and claim these are yours.
L.L.C.G. - Lightweight Large Caliber Gun: The original base of the weapon is an extended and upgraded basic turret mount that includes a weapon mount riser in order to facilitate a size increase of the weapons it will be mounted on. The first weapon that uses this mount is a cannon that facilitates large caliber shells propelled at high speeds, using the conventional ammo box limits the shell count to only 20 rounds while retaining its compact shape to fit inside ammo shelves. This comes at a downside of having higher mounting costs and higher weapon demands both the ammunition recipe and the actual price/cost of it.
Has 3 types of ammo:

[Proximity fuse]
+Large area of effect damage
+Stuns enemies within the blast radius
+Large triggering radius
-Low damage output against armored targets
-Low damage output against structures
-Heavy and slow rounds
[HEDP/HESH]
+Delayed impact detonation
+Large damage
+Retains a moderate AoE capability and damage
+Deals a proper amount at some armored opponents
+Large structure damage
-May still struggle with more armored opponents
-No Proximity fuse
-Heavy and slow rounds
[APSC]
+High single opponent damage
+High AP capability
+High damage output vs smaller targets
+Hitscan projectile
+Penetrates up to 4 targets
-Low explosive potential
-No proximity fuse and small projectile, easy to miss smaller targets
-More expensive than the previous two ammunition.

L.R.C. - Lightweight Rotary Cannon: a further development of the use of the weapon mounting system that is lightweight to fit in the basic weapon turret slot while having the capabilities of larger weapons. This one is meant to mount a 3 barreled rotary cannon that has an incredibly fast firerate paired with an incredibly high damage output. This however retains the same problem as the cannon with high electrical demand and overall high prices to mount and operate.
Has 2 types of ammo:

[HE]
+High damage output all over vs unarmored targets
+Low base cost
+Stuns enemies
+Small blast radius
+Blasts hulls open
-Slight overpen results in delayed detonation
-Small damage radius
-Small explosion radius

[AP]
+High damage output stacked vs armored targets
+Pierces through 1 target and stops at the 2nd
+Some armor penetration values makes this great vs armored enemies
+Higher stun dealt to enemies
+High damage output vs larger enemies with more mass and more limbs to deal damage against
+Can dealt alot of damage vs targets stacked with 2 targets to pierce.
-Overpenetration against targets causes only half of the damage to be dealt against that target
-No blast radius at all
-Lower stun

[Ball]
+Standard kinetic projectile with medium capabilities in between the HE and AP
+Does not overpenetrate
+Cheaper than the two by a large margin
+Delivers all of its kinetic blow in one hit
-Lacks any special properties

Plasma E.M.R. - A purely electric weapon that uses no projectile base and can be fired indefinitely just by being powered with electricity, extremely more power hungry than the two, has a 4 second charge and a 4 second reload. Consumes up to 45KW of energy, you may need a power capacity equivalency greater than one base non-upgraded supercapacitor to power this turret efficiently. Run off discharge creates an electric discharge coil effect to a lesser degree, but burns and stuns greater. Impact of the plasma shot is highly devastating and not recommended to be used in close proximity. Ammo stays as is and cannot be swapped. Take care that the loader is definitely not damaged at all since fixing this may be a dangerous task and an error may result in fatal consequences.
