re: [glob2-devel] should turrets attack air?

[donkyhotay]

This is something thats been discussed in the forums. An idea that came up was 
the idea that level1 turrents can not attack air and you would need to upgrade 
to level2 before attacking air. This of course is slightly different, and a 
level 2 would allow attack of both. Another way of doing turrets I've been 
thinking about would be completely different. Have a level1 turret do a very 
short-range attack that attacks air and ground (I'm thinking of something 
similar to the explorers attack). When you upgrade to level 2 you keep the 
short range attack and add either long range ground or long range air. Upgrade 
to level3 then adds the other long range attack. 


I suggest a fix : one can choose to upgrade level 1 ground turret (that should
not be able to attack birds) either to level 2 ground turret or to level 1
air turret (that can not attack ground units). That is more or less the same
as the zerg turrets in Starcraft and give additional gameplay as a choice to
the player.

That would require ability to upgrade to several building but should not be
difficult to implement.
