    1) does a bobby module need to be on the turret ship, or can I build it on the mothership, and link it to the turret's weapons computer from there? (Getting slightly annoyed with having to physically leave ship, and activate them all the time, after accidentally switching cockpit views)

    2) Can I fit turrets on a turret? Will those fire independantly of the turret's main bobby module, if they have their own bobby modules?

    3) is it any use to stack power storage batteries in my turrets, or is just power generators better?

    1) A BobbyAI module needs to be on the turret ship for it to be recognized as such.

    There is currently no way to activate turret mode without having to go out and activate it manually.



    2) Turrets can\'t be placed on top of other turrets.



    3) IMO power generation is enough,unless you want the turrets to draw power from the ship it is docked to. In that case the space that would be taken up by power genrators,can be filled ith shield blocks.



    I hope i was able to help you.
