I'm also pleased to announce that Combat Extended (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=33461.0) now includes compatibility patches for these turrets, which I helped write and test.
Happy Hunting, folks!
The funny/best part about this update is because I have been wishing that your turrets didn't explode just hours ago. I use your turrets as weapons for my Mechanoid Army (courtesy of "What The Hack?!"), and let's just say that 30 raiders was no match for 2 gatling-gun and grenade launcher-strapped centipedes, but they were easy pickings for the 6 surviving raiders as soon as the centipedes' own turrets exploded on their backs.
Thank you very much!
Why is the magazine capacity of the turrets so low? Any chance to increase it?

Exploding turrets in the stock game bothered me as well - my understanding is that Tynan wanted to simulate ammo cook-off, but more often than not a group of raiders simply surround and melee the turret, so it didn't make sense to me that a turret would explode from being smashed with a club or something.
Incidentally, Combat Extended also doesn't use CompProperties_Explosive for their turrets, so I removed them from the stock version of DMGTP as well for consistency.

The turrets' magazine capacities were based on real-world data.
In the case of the M134 Minigun, while 3,000 and 4,000-round ammo magazines do exist, Combat Extended has a technical limitation in that the maximum stack size (and maximum amount that pawns can reload) for its 7.62×51mm NATO is limited to 500 rounds. After consulting with CE's author NoImageAvailable, we decided to cap the M134 Minigun turret's ammo capacity to 500 rounds.
So no, CE will not allow the limit to be increased.
When reloading the turrets the magazine is getting "emptied" before. Even when it still have 400 ammo the process of reloading is deleting the current magazine before placing new one? Is that the procedure? Couldnt check it yet.
But isnt it possibly just to add ammo to the current magazine instead of replacing it so it can be stacked above the carry capacity of haulers?
Just like they do with any item piles.

That's standard behaviour for reloading Combat Extended - instead of simply topping up ammo, it completely removes any existing rounds before reloading it with a full stack.
There's nothing I can do to change this behaviour to increase the M134's ammo capacity, and any changes would adversely affect the way CE works.
It kind of makes sense too.
With any weapon where you do not manually feed it with rounds (forexample a classic pump action shotgun), you detatch the whole magasin, or you detatch the belt. Topping off would be quite unrealistic unless it was some sort of caseless ammo where you could just pour more into the box.

Does removing mean deleting existing magazines? Or is the replaced ammo put into backpack for later use? Couldnt check myself...

All good, just wanna know the rules. Keep up the great work!

The existing ammo is first moved to the pawn's Gear invetory, before the weapon is completely reloaded.
I assume you have played with Combat Extended before? Because this is standard CE behaviour.
Nope. Or else i wouldnt ask.
Handy mod. For some reason, CE doesn't include turrets that shoot rifle rounds apart from the m240B. DP turret is handy in the early game when you have a bunch of russian arms since NATO arms require chemfuel to build. KPV is expensive to shoot and none of your rifles share ammo with it. Horrible for suppression since you are using 50 steel for 200 rounds while 7.59R uses ~20 steel for 500. This mod should probably be included in CE guns, tbh.
I haven't tried any of the other turrets but looking over the stats in the patch files, they seem to be reasonable and fill in holes of CE. Minigun seems like a lot of fun. Very expensive fun.
Also, why this isn't in the steam workshop? There is the older version but you could just label it, "Defensive Machine Gun Turret Pack 1.0 [CE compatible]".

- I prefer to maintain only one download location available to all users, not just limited to Steam users
- I don't like how Steam manages mod files (i.e. renames mod folders into an non-descriptive ID number, making debugging or reverse-engineering mods difficult)
- I want users to update and troubleshoot my mods manually, instead of Steam automatically forcing breaking changes onto their savegames
- I don't like the Steam community in general
Combat Extended:
I don't know how to replicate this bug, but my turrets (I only use manned) periodically don't shoot. I can see the shrinking cones as if it is readying to fire but no bullet comes out.
Two separate M2HBs behaved differently - one was okay, while the other wasn't able to shoot. When I was toggling Aim modes, it suddenly started firing in suppress mode, but others still didn't work.
90mm turret (which is from CE) had same issues. No log error btw.
Honestly, I don't know where to ask or how to solve it, other than replacing turrets with God mode.

I experienced this issue myself briefly during development, but I haven't been able to replicate it since.
Did you add the turrets to an existing CE savegame, or did you start a brand new game? Does God-moding replacement turrets in resolve the issue permanently?

I think I've found the cause. Turrets won't fire (except for suppress mode) if they are directly adjacent and firing through embrasures. Any kind, I tried both CE native and Rainbeau Flambe's Concrete mod embrasures.
So, if one tile has a turret, the one next to it is an embrasure wall and the target is somewhere on the other side, the turret won't fire.
Edit: It's a new game.

Does this only happen for CE-patched DMGTP turrets, or for all CE turrets in general?
NoImageAvailable mentioned on the CE Discord channel that he pushed out an update a couple of days ago, which included a LoS fix for embrasures. Could you also please confirm that you are running the latest version of CE?
1. I have tried both Steam and GitHub CE latest releases in a new game. Only CE and DMGT active.
2. CE turrets behave just fine with CE embrasures. DMGT turrets don't fire if target is beyond an embrasure. Placement doesn't actually matter, it can be a few tiles away, but it "doesn't have line of sight" if target is beyond it. It's like they are considered walls.
3. In fact, they can't shoot over sandbags, but I didn't check this one without Concrete mod, which changes the recipe for them. So maybe vanilla sandbags are okay.
Thank you for your detailed report!
I investigated things a bit further, and can confirm that both manned and sentry DMGT turrets can only fire over vanilla sandbags in Suppress aim mode (as you initially reported) - Snapshot and Aimed shot don't work.
On the other hand, the default CE turrets can fire just fine over sandbags in any aim mode, which suggests there may be something fundamentally wrong with the DMGT CE patches. I'll have a look through those in a moment.
zozilin, I just had a word with CE author NoImageAvailable, and he informed me that all turrets should have a fillPercent value of 0.85 in order to function properly under CE.
I'm managed to implement a fix on my end, but just to confirm, could you please go into all the turret defs for DMGT and change the fillPercent value for all five mounted and all three sentry turrets to 0.85?
If this works, then I can push out an update by the end of the week.

Just registered to confirm you that they work now after changing the fillPercent value to 0.85
Also how about an option to disable reloading if the ammo option is disabled in CE too?

Thanks for the heads-up! I'll mark this issue as resolved.

Ooh, this is an interesting one.
I understand that CE does indeed have an option to disable ammunition use, but even after examining the standard CE turrets, I'm not sure how I could specifically modify the DMGT turrets to do so.
EDIT: AFAIK, disabling ammo in CE simply disables ammo types and crafting; all turrets and weapons, regardless of whether they're from vanilla CE or third-party mods, still need to be reloaded from an infinite pool of ammo. So my turrets already behave exactly as standard CE turrets would under the no-ammo game mode.
Yeah i forgot about that as soon as i saw that they had to be reloaded :P. Amazing mod btw love the manned turrets
Defensive Machine Gun Turret Pack has been updated for RimWorld 1.0.2150 - see first post for download link.

I seem to have a problem here, i can research the turrets just fine but there is no option to build them.
I checked under every menu plus the machining table, and nothing :-\
Additional research is required to unlock all the DMGT pack turrets.
For a vanilla playthrough:
- Mounted DP-28 Turret requires Gas Operation
- Mounted M2HB and Twin M2HB Turrets require Recoil Operation
- Mounted M134 Turret requires Multibarrel Weapons
- Mounted Mk 19 Turret requires Blowback Operation and Mortars
- M2HB Sentry gun requires Gun Turrets and Recoil Operation
- M134 Sentry gun requires Gun Turrets and Multibarrel Weapons
- Mk 19 Sentry gun requires Gun Turrets, Blowback Operation and Mortars
However, if you are running Combat Extended, the research unlocks required are different:
- Mounted DP-28 Turret requires Gas Operation
- Mounted M2HB, Twin M2HB, M134 and Mk 19 Turrets require Heavy Weapons (from the new Turrets research tab added by CE)
- M2HB, M134 and Mk 19 Sentry guns require Heavy Weapons and Heavy Auto Turrets (ditto)
Another question if i may?
Do mounted turrets use the skill of the colonist operating them, or is accuracy connected to the turrets themselves?
Also, is there a spreadsheet of various turret stats somewhere?
Wondering if there's any use for the lower tech ones, or should i just go straight for the miniguns?
Using normal non-CE version btw.
Thanks in advance :)
To be honest, I myself don't know if the mounted turrets rely on colonist skill, and I don't have a comparative spreadsheet of stats for all the turrets.
All I'm really doing is just maintaining FenderSBlackie's original mod to work for current and future versions of RimWorld.

Hello there!
I made a russian localization of this mod:

Defensive Machine Gun Turret Pack has been updated for RimWorld 1.0.2150 - see first post for download link.

Defensive Machine Gun Turret Pack has been updated for RimWorld 1.0.2150 - see first post for download link.
Version 1.5.1 - 20 March 2019
---------------------
- Fix original author name from FenderSBlackie to Coalcat/Blackie
- Repackage for Steam Workshop release
- Remove changelog from About.xml for brevity
I have also (very reluctantly) released this mod to the Steam Workshop as well.
I know this isn't really your problem, but I'd really appreciate some insight if you have any.
I tried editing the range of the turrets you created to be more in line with similar CE turrets and their real life equivalents, but the edits to the xml values always end up being your defaults in-game.
For example I edited the range for the Mk19:
<ThingDef ParentName="BaseHumanGun">
...
<verbs>
<li>
...
<range>90</range>
...
</li>
</verbs>
</ThingDef>
But when I use it in game it doesn't have 90 range, it instead has the default value assigned to it. Is there something obvious I'm overlooking?
It sounds ridiculous, but it made my night to find your mod. I was so sick of using the AGS-30 and the KPV, having some NATO heavy weapons is fantastic.

I assume you are trying to use the turrets in a CE savegame?
If so, editing the XML defs won't work because CE by default comes prepackaged with a compatibility patch for DMGTP turrets, which takes precedence over any local edits.
Also, I was the one who wrote and submitted the CE patch to the CE team. The range and firepower stats were all based on the official CE calculation spreadsheets, so the turrets in CE savegames should already be balanced properly.
Now, if you were running a non-CE savegame, then your edits (though not recommended)
should have been applied.
Thank you for explanation. I moved your mod before CE in the load order, and the range values were in-line with what I was expecting. I appreciate the help.
-edit-
Now I realize I was just being a moron. The range the turrets highlight before being built is not the same as once they're actually constructed. Sorry for wasting your time.
I don't know which mod's not cooperating,but something's not working. Lemme explain.
I use What The Hack?! (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=44082.0) as a means to supplement colony defence. I got your mod,and when I saw that the Mk. 19 was a grenade machine gun,I practically salivated,and made it my life mission to hack four Centipedes. What The Hack?! allows you to mount uninstalled turrets onto "large Mechanoids",which pretty much amounts to just Centipedes,if you don't run a Mechanoid mod,assuming you've installed the proper upgrade module. This specific feature is noted to be universally compatible,without the need for patches,and the mod author demonstrated this by mounting a turret from the More Vanilla Turrets mod to a Centipede.
I can assign the modification (It's a surgery,technically) if I have the uninstalled Mk. 19 sentry turret in storage. However,it'll never be done,because I apparently lack the materials. Despite the sole material being a single uninstalled Mk. 19 sentry turret. According to What The Hack's?! advertising,I shouldn't be having this issue.
I'll also be posting this in the What The Hack?! thread,just in case it's on their end,rather than yours.
That's a rather unusual use case, Riddle78 - for me, anyway. I'll look into it when time permits.
Just wanted to say thanks for keeping this up-to-date, it's one of my preferred Security tab mods for being an upgrade to the mini-turrets without being end-game content plasma-augment nuclear battleship artillery.
hi, quick question: Does the new turrets spawn at AI colonies and outposts?

Most likely not, as I haven't explicitly patched the stock colony and outpost generators to make use of these turrets.

Bummer. Well, thanks a lot for your asnwer and the update :)

Bummer. Well, thanks a lot for your asnwer and the update :)
Well, you can always formally submit a request via the issue tracker on this mod's GitHub repo :)
The thing is, which turrets should spawn at AI colonies and outposts? Would the automatic M2HB/M134/Mk 19 sentry turrets be too OP? And if we take those out, can AI pawns actually operate the manned direct-fire turrets? (as opposed to just mortars?)
Would you guys be okay if the AI only spawns with the DP-28 and maybe the single-barrel M2HB? Or would you also want the manned M134 minigun and Mk 19 AGL too?
I'm trying to get an "equivalency" table between the vanilla turrets and yours. I find the default turrets too generic and bland, and would prefer to only use the ones from this mod.
As I'm not sure if the AI would man the non-automatic turrets, what I do is to substitute in dev mode them once I clean a map.
Just wanted to give a big thanks for keeping this one updated. I consider it a required mod to go along with CE. It's so goddamn glorious to see a pair of Mk19's open up with full auto on poor, unsuspecting tribal raids.
