Currently I'm making a tank game.I'm using the vehicle code and have mount a turret on top, but have no control of its aiming direction.It can only shoot front. Can anyone help?

The turrets need to be coded into the engine, Im working on this now and I've noticed a few others are doing so as well, but I need some help understanding what functions I need to add and the vars called in those functions..

If some one could explain the uses of these function I would be greatfull. Im assuming these are the main movement functions.
processTick(const Move* move)
updateMove(const Move* move)
interpolateTick(F32 dt)
advanceTime(F32 dt)

Thanks again.
