Do the wall mounted turrets have free range over all sides of the wall, or do you have to select which 'side' it's on?

Mounted turrets can fire on any side of the wall. Unfortunately this means that, should your defensive line fail, the turrets may fire upon friendly colonists.

do the turrets get any cover bonus?
also, this is going to get confused with the More Vanilla Turrets mod.

1. Yes and no. The Manned Turrets do provide more cover to the operator than simply standing behind some Sandbags. Mounted Turrets, however, simply provide colonists with the usual corner-cover bonus. The turrets themselves only benefit from the extra HP provided by the wall.
2. Meh. Right now this mod is so small (in terms of what it does) that I'm not too concerned.

Latest Update:
8 Sep 2016

This (my first mod) adds two new turrets:

   
• Manned Turret
  
  
  An emplacement for a brave sacrifice colonist. The mounted gun fires in 5-round bursts but has a slightly shorter range than its AI predecessor.
  
  
  
  
• Mounted Turret
  
  
  It's a bird! It's a plane! It's....a turret on a wall! That's right, we did it. No longer will you have to worry about those pesky tribesmen bashing your precious turrets.
  
  
  
  Now available in 12 astonishing colors!

Care to explain a little? I've been running into issues with 'stuff' not being defined. I remove classifying as Metallic or whatever and it works so I just assumed it worked fine but now it's clear that I'm missing something...

Anyway object look nice and pretty and white if they have no 'stuff' category also.

Is there no way to play A15 at this time other than through Steam? Apologies if this is the wrong board for this and thanks in advance for the help.
