Don't use turrets. Use missiles.
Fixes the turret issue.
Lol
But creates the "oh no, my target ECM'd my 30 Packhounds and now they're wandering off in to the crowd!" problem instead.

+10,000,000,000 for a reload button.
Been asking since I realised there wasn't one. Lol
Doesn't need a dedicated binding (would be nice, but those console players don't have much to use), just <modules tab> -> <select weapon> -> <reload magazine>.
And in the functions tab, <reload all>, which obviously just reloads all ammo based weapons.
