Does turret AI work on stations and ships when no abroad?

    They should unless the AI got turned off somehow.

    Hmmmm..... I actually engaged a pirate station, and my turrets shot off all of their turrets then started pointing in random directions...

    They were most likely firing at the pirate reinforcements that get called in when you damage pirate stations.

    No, oddly enough there were no reinorcements. My turrets always seem buggy though. Some of them have a tendency to clip through the ship, my main ones have two articulated barrels and one of the barrels will point at the target while the other points the other way.

    Don't use turrets with more then one AI (or moving barrel segment), the game doesn't really support it and it'll cause issues.

    Ahhh.... I may need to redesign my turrets.... But what about the other ones? They have only one barrel and they still clip through the ship and try to fire on targets on the other side. I have tested it, and there is no way for them to get to the position the AI puts them in manually.
