    • Rear Laser Turret?

      I'm flying a Rapier, and the "player info" box says I have a rear laser turret. It doesn't fire, even whan something is targeted. What's the deal?
      (I swear, this is the last question I'm asking 🙂 )

      It only fires to the rear. Have a targeted enemy behind you and press your primary trigger. It's pretty useless though 🙂

      Any way to get rid of it? probably not, right?
      (these don't count)

      I have now gotten it to fire, but...still, no purpose in having it

      Yeah, turrets are only good in twos. Buy a 'Vette.

      I dunno, after a while it gets fun to play ships in their stock condition...

      I actually find it kind of realistic that at least something on a ship is hard-wired into it.

      No. It's a Rapier only weapon. 🙂

      ResEdit.
      That is, it would be possible to edit the game resources or make a plug-in that would allow the Rapier's rear turret to be sold - short of that, you're stuck with it as long as you keep the Rapier.

      I have a Corvette now, so the question is moot
