Turrets

Do I need to animate the turret looking up, down, left, and right, or is there a dummy I'm supposed to put at the pivot point? I've looked for a tutorial on turrets, but can't find anything.

    Turrets are handled like the players head.

    I don't know the modeling details, but the actions of the "head" part of the turret would be controlled via code, and not hard-coded animations.

    This is something many people have been asking about, so I'm sure within a few weeks we'll see someone who has got it working, and might be willing to share with you or the community.
