Mounted Turrets that require Actors

I mean, sure, we're all in the future and stuff, and we don't need such thing (or do we?) but I'd like to see something like that. Any takers?

Darkstorm has mid-game deployable bunker module style turrets. Other than that it's simply disabling the AI

You know, it has to have an actor to get it to run. So... Wait.... It's kinda stupid if you think about it... I mean, you're a brain that can mind control people AND robots. And there's a gun that you have to control through a person... Why not just control it directly, right? Haha. Even still, I want a gun that you have to control with an actor. Thanks for trying though

There's a veichle control one so look at that to see how that was made. EDIT: I think that was the spelling mistake, control was spelt controll Last edited by Samohan25 on Wed Nov 18, 2009 6:23 pm, edited 2 times in total.

OP, this is a pretty common request, I'm not sure if anyone has really done it well, but between TLB, Zalo, Cavecricket, various others and myself, something'll probably get done eventually.

I mean, minus the legs of course.
