Monkey Beacon (Tower)

"Increases the attack range of all stuff within the beacon area. Has several useful upgrades that help out nearby towers, including its ultimate ability to call in Super Monkey Storms."

- BTD4 Description

The Monkey Beacon is a tower that costs the same as the Banana Farm and doesn't attack. It improves any towers in its radius, beginning with range (be careful when upgrading as the effect of Jungle Drums cancel out when you upgrade them to sonar despite that Super Monkey Storm still makes towers detect camos, proving that the jungle drums canceling out is a bug).

Upgrades

 * Wider Influence: Increases monkey beacons range.
 * Jungle Drums: Increases the firing speed of any "monkey towers"
 * Sonar Beacon: Allows towers in its radius to detect camo bloons.
 * Monkey Storm Beacon: The final upgrade (Unlocked at rank 18) is the monkey storm beacon, which summons monkey storms by paying the amount of cash required to use it. Super Monkey Storms destroy all bloons up to ceramic bloons. M.O.A.Bs and B.F.Bs need low HP to be destroyed by super monkey storms. The super monkey storm has a reload time now; about 1 and a half minutes. In BTD3, there wasn't any reload time. The reload time was probably created due to the upgrade's great power. Without it, later rounds (+80) are ridiculously easy. Also, it is unique, so you can only have 1 storm beacon
