Bullet Proof Space Tanks

Hey, spotted a bug where the space tanks aren't being targeted by turrets. Uploading a save where this is going on.

didn't get to look at the save, but the main reason why that would happen is the shield strength on the tanks is high enough to cause shooting at them to be pointless, so the turrets don't even bother.

If we weren't going for your money, you wouldn't have gotten as much value for it!

Oh, wait... *causation loop detonates*

Yes thats the reason - same thing will happen if you encounter acid sprayers.

If I remember correctly - try Laser turrets on them there is a chance that they will shoot.

Placing turrets closer to the wormholes can also help with this.  Moving to strategy discussion.
