Custom Turret Controller - Auto Fire setting
Not Enough Votes
Some way to disable the auto firing of a custom turret entirely would be useful for ammo conservation, and would allow us to use custom turret controllers purely as targeting computers for aim assist gimbal mounts.
Either an on/off auto fire setting or the ability to simply set the angle deviation setting to 0 should achieve this.
I like this feedback
I would avoid setting angle deviation to 0, and instead use the on/off button because in that way we could use toolbar, timer blocks, ecc... to disable fire, while using a slider would only give the option to increase and decrease the value in the toolbar / timer block.
Another idea would be to put a "safety" checkbox like the warhead one on every single gun, even the static guns, not just for the turrets. This would allow for example for a custom Turret to be told which weapons it can use, if it's a turret with multiple weapons. For example if i have a turret with 3 railguns, i could disable the first railgun safety, and when the turrets decides to fire it will fire with only one of the 3 railguns, then when that railgun is charging i could put the safety and remove the safety of the second railgun, and so on. This can be automated by timer blocks, and will enable custom turret to use a staggered fire mode.

Doesn't turning the Custom Turret Controller block off accomplish that? You can also turn off the AI.
