# TurretlessVehicleHits
When a vehicle without a turret is hit in the turret, the hit is moved to the facing side/front/rear.
## Requires

While I haven't tested this mod with the built in modloader, I see no reason that it shouldn't work.
* HBS for making a great game
Once the hit location on a vehicle is determined, this mod examines the result. If the vehicle doesn't have a turret, and the hit location is "turret", the hit is moved to the facing side of the vehicle: attacks from front hit front, side hit that side, and rear hit rear.
Logging can be enabled. To do so, edit the mod.json to set
"logActions": true
The log file ModExecution.log will be created in the mod directory and overwritten each time the game is started with this mod enabled.
This small gameplay mod fixes a bug where hits on vehicles without turrets are lost when they strike the turret location. Instead, the hit is redirected to the facing side, front, or rear. For players frustrated by wasted shots on turretless vehicles, this is a simple, targeted fix.
