There are more turrets, but im tired
This was originally part of my rebalance mod, but ive seperated it so that more people can enjoy the luxury of S ships having turrets, both for defence and for offense.
Also there probably will be more updates which might add more turrets, give more ships S turrets or both, who knows!
If you have any problems or opinions, just plop them down in the comment section and i might respond.
