I mean freakin’s seriously people, c’mon! I debug spawned a zombie brute right outside my palisades with a half dozen turrets within range of it and they wouldn’t attack! I even dropped 1k rounds of 9mm on each turret, nothing! ☹

OK thanks. It might would help if it would mention this somewhere in the turret’s description.

KA101 scrambles through an improbably contrived obstacle course and jams on a keyboard. White smoke shoots out!
