I think it would be cool idea, to have the turrets retract into safe storage mode when the system is set in safe gun mode. I think it would be a good way to hide the the weapon setup types from others, till you are ready to fight. What do you guys think?

People zoom in to see what guns they have fitted?

How will they shoot rats and legal targets while retracted?

tl;dr OP doesn't know what the safety system entails.

Ouch that actually hurt.
I have to wear glasses in real life just to be able to see.
And even then I still everyone's auras.
So yes thank you for bringing my disability into this!

Yeah zooming in on a ship to see if they have arty or auto cannons can help out in a fight

That is why it would be a nice to have them retract when in safe mode, to make it harder for others to see your setup.

You know that autcannons hardly retract at all and this wouldn't change much at all when someone is zooming in to see weapons right?
