New to horizons.
How do you target turrets (etc) when flying (in ship not srv) over a planetary base station. Even when the turrets are blasting the hell out of my ship, the normal select target key does not work.
 
yeah sorry Carebear, it was to easy before so they made it way hard. Get some dumb fire missiles and you can still take them out as Sndle9 said. WAY FUN TOO!
 
I find a really nice way to kill turrets on planets is to use beam lasers and drop to the deck and hover just out of their range, you can pop them off in no time. You can hear an audio indication of when you are hitting them. You can see a little puff of smoke when they blow up. The big turrets do seem bugged though, when they are destroyed they don't change model like the small ones, they still look like they are fully operational even though they are not.

I wasted soooo many missiles until a suspected this.
 
PA's work really well for doing this, you can stay out of there range and normally destroy them in 2-3 hits.
