new here, so m not sure if this goes in here or Object showcase. Anyway, i've bee working on a turret that lock onto sackboy, making it more difficult to dodge. i've got all the logics right, but i hink the game can't handle the split second actions becaue it tends to miss sackboy entirely. Hopefuly i'll get it to work fine. i'll try posting pictures later

My guess is you just need to do some fine tweaking on the options. It can be done, an example i can think of is DCF's Boss "The Rescue of Persephone" In Boss Rush 3 (Published under the PSN LBPC_BossRush). But if this isn't done, i guess its a project

You posted in the right place. This sounds like my intelligent auto-aiming system (or lock-on if that's how you want to word it) I started work on a while back that actually aims and follow sackperson and would stop aimed where sackperson stopped. I was still trying to get it just right, and haven't gone back to it yet.

Yeah, quite a few of these have been produced and there are various methods of achieving it. At a guess I'd say you are using angle-limited prox sensors on either side of the turret, controlling a three way switch, which in turn controls a wobble or motor bolt? As burnvictim says, the trick really is to get a balance between the "dead Zone" between the two sensors and the speed of the bolt, mostly this is trial and error.

I actually made a very convoluted design when I first tried this... I made a semi-circular track for a "cart" to move along using wobble bolt wheels attached through a 3 way switch, then the cart was allowed to pivot around a normal bolt, but was controlled by the wheels on the "cart". I got everything all tweaked nicely, and then it hit me... why can't I just put the 3 way switch on a wobble bolt pivot...? Facepalm. Ironically, I couldn't get the simpler version to be tweaked as nicely as the stupid version. In the end it was axed from the project, so no harm done. But, lol @ my failure.
