All hulls are vulnerable to rockets. That's because ship hull points are actually tied to the model of the ship, and shield is a separate model. So when the hull is hit physically, hit points will decrease.

There's no way to make hulls or shields more or less vulnerable to rockets, at least I don't know a way to do that. All weapons have only one damage characteristic - hull damage, shield damage is counted as hull damage/2. There are types of shields that are more or less vulnerable to particular weapon types, but rockets and torpedoes are all the same, there are no types for them.

I cannot make nomad turrets much more powerful because then Nomad battleship that has a real lot of those turrets will become practically invincible. There's only one type of Nomad turrets so both PC (in future I might make them flyable) and NPC versions will be affected. It's possible to make a new weapon item of course...
