Summary0019841: Lightning turrets do almost no damage (Full MK4 Cap salvo doesn't even register on healthbars)
DescriptionI have a setup here, just the initial planet with a full cap of MK4 Lightning Turrets. Spawn a wave and watch as...nothing happens. I see squads losing something like 4HP per salvo, which is useless as a combatant.

EDIT: It seems to be pathetic range instead. Their AOE radius is shorter than the attack range, so they're firing at things they can't damage. I had a bomber squad end up infront of the turrets, and it eventually died, but that many MK4 Lightnings vs 1 MK1 Bomber squad, which they have a bonus against is still horrific. Lightnings in Classic used to evaporate bomber waves.

Extra save; here you have Bombers surrounded by a full MK4 cap of them. Damage is still almost nothing.

Thanks!

* All of the ships with tesla coils now have a smaller range of 2800, but a much larger AOE range of 2800 instead of the prior 500. Now when they fire, they should actually hit their targets.
