Here is something I was thinking about for turrets, and I wanted to get some feedback.
I was thinking of a engineering boost for turrets, which could be used by the gunner. Imagine if when you got into a turret there were 2 slots where you could stick engineering juice. You would access them by switching the turret to secondary fire and using the fire key to pop engy canisters from your backpack into one or both slots. Once the canisters were in place they would allow the turret to repair itself at twice the speed of an engineer standing there with a gluegun. When a canister runs out you can switch fire modes and load in another one if you have it. Having 2 canister slots gives you a chance to keep loading in fresh ones during a large fight.
In this way you could have engineers with backpacks full of juice manning the turrets, without feeling as if they were just climbing into a coffin.
Thoughts?
