Feature: Remote sensors #5
Description
Radar dishes/etc that can be linked to turret bases, either wirelessly or via some kind of cable.
Sensors would have configurable ranges, and can do things like control turrets and emit redstone signals when they detect targets.
Example:
User places down a turret and sets it to not automatically shoot anything. They link it to a sensor 30 blocks away, and give that sensor full control of the turret and a target detection radius of 8 blocks. That turret can now shoot at anything in that 8 block radius but nowhere else.
Potential uses:
- Limiting firing angles of turrets by only allowing a turret to shoot at entities inside the radar's range.
- Extend firing range by allowing turrets to shoot beyond their own targetting distance (still needs some limit to make range upgrades relevant, e.g. no more than 2x the turret's own range?)
