    A simple search will yield all the results you need...in fact, Tricky's Tutorials have a few good ones already.

    It would help if we knew exactly how you wanted to aim them. I have quite a number of good turret designs, but different aiming systems do require different setups...there's manual control, laser pointer control, target finder control, etc.

    I recommend laser pointers. Really simple. AND fun.

    Well what we were looking for was a way to do it so that all the turrets would look where your cursor was at all times is there anything like that?

    If you use a laser guided weapon, and you always have that going, then it will always follow the pointer.

    Alternately, you would (in theory--i don't know if this works or not) use an advanced pod and have it output cursor bearing relative to the platform. That MIGHT work also. I don't know if it does that or not.
