Playing with workbench recently, and while tripods are pretty easy to make, I don't know what they're for.
They don't work with cameras, and I haven't tried to use them with a gun.
What do they do?

I believe there was mention of being able to mount pod weaponry on them and making a turret.
Or so I believe.

And here I was thinking we were able to make War of the Worlds-esque Tripods. Darn.
Mounted turrets sound pretty darn useful, though, especially if you mount some sort of stun gun on it. If security deployed them in the right chokepoints they could probably hold their own against The Grey Tide. A Pie Turret for the Clown sounds like it would be pretty fun too, but this isn't the Suggestion Forum so I'll zip it for now!

They're for crafting tripod lights and those tracking beacons that pods can wormhole to.
Right now the bulbs are admin-spawn only for some reason. Ask Tobba.

That's what I heard too.

Yeah, I'll get back to working on that soon.
