This is a basic turret mod I made. It only has a bit of basic features, but I'll work on more. I'd personally use this alongside apocalypse mods (it just gives the vibe I guess). I don't have many ideas for this yet but I would love for some recommendations in the comments.

Anyway, these are the specifics for the turret.

❤️ Health

It has 100 HP (50 hearts) and shoots bullets dealing 5 HP of damage.

If damaged, it is repairable with iron ingots. After 50% health, the turret will look damaged and smoke will start coming out of it. Each iron ingot you give the turret restores 10 HP (5 hearts) and can be used until it is at max health.

🤔 Purpose

It shoots hostile mobs with projectile bullets and is best used to defend your base(s) against mobs like zombies or skeletons. It can be used in groups for great defense.

🛠️ Upgrades

You can upgrade the turret in two ways:

Strengthen (damage)
Reinforce (health)

There is a max level of 15 set for both and you can upgrade its damage with iron ingots and its health with iron blocks. For each level, damage increases by 0.5 HP and health increases by 2 HP (1 heart)

🎒 Inventory

To craft a turret, you would need:

3 iron blocks
2 iron ingots
1 iron nugget
1 redstone

arranged in this order:

If you ever incorrectly place a turret or want to change its location, you can use any pickaxe to pick up the turret (LMB/hit) which will still remain with its upgrades.
