📋 About This Mod
This is my first addon, so let me know if you find any issues.
(2) 1x1 Martial Plots
There is one Basic Martial Plot with turrets. It starts with Machine Gun turrets and upgrades to Laser Turrets.
The other Martial Plot is an Advanced Martial Plot with turrets. This one starts with Heavy Machine Gun Turrets and upgrades to Heavy Laser Turrets.
(1) Interior Martial Plot (v1. 1)
Field Medics subtype.
(1) 2x2 Recreational Plot
This is a Mess Hall subtype.
(1) Interior Recreational Plot
Also a Mess Hall subtype.
I do plan to add more, mostly the Martial subtypes (Armory, Battlefield Scavengers, Field Medics, Prisons, Recruitment Centers, Watch Tower)
I'll also add 1 or 2 more Recreational Plots using the Military Training subtype.
Since these are pretty new, I figured I'd go ahead and release what I have and update as I get more done so folks have a few more choices.
UPGRADING MID-SAVE:
Open the City Manager Holotape and go to Tools > Advanced Tools > Rerun Addons Registration
