So it is possible!
Won't spacing out the turrets a bit more (ok, a lot more) make them selectable?

the turret health should be moved around more, and possibly all of the health should add up to 100 rather than it be a ♥♥♥♥ of 100s and hearts.

Stupid Idea :

For the crab to transport troops, you could attach Actor Docks, and have it activate when the Actors's AI mode is set to patrol.
Think of it, dropping the units you want into the fray!

mmm bodyshields. Maybe a more realistic troop transport idea is an ACrab for the legs, a Dropship without jets for the transport, and AHumans for the autoturrets. Sounds good Y/N? And of course you'll have to point the doors to the sides instead of the bottom.

Yeah, ACDropships have a bad tendency to auto scuttle when they are held in place.

So it's either an ACRocket, or a Docking Bay.

I think we could have little bunkers with docking bays in them for people to stand in and fire out of, and a little ACRocket transport compartment for actors who are too important to risk. So it would be like, several bunkers, made up of attachables, and an AHuman/ACrab dock in each bunker. Then the ACRocket entrances sticking diagonally down from the body as a whole.

Sorry about hoaxing you guys with the two fake pics of my Multi Turret Crab, but rest assured. When Roon3 gets on I am gonna have him code up this bad boy, I already have all the actors I need. I just need him to assemble it for me as I am a Luanalphabet.

Edit: HOLY ♥♥♥♥ I GOT IT WORKING

I think I'll wait for Roon3 to get back on IRC and then we need to tweak it

I'll remodel the old AAL titan and finally add what it was ment to have originally.
This turret stuff is excellent.

My idea,
Make a craft, that when it picks up units places them at point A,B,C,D, etc...
and they function as turrets from there, keeping picked up health values and using the weapon they had out at the moment of pick up.
then create turret units that are spawned with the craft, and make it so it picks up when first opened and not drop them off.
