Functional as of [[Change Log|version 01.027.006]], the interior turret is an automatic [[weapon]] which will target and fire upon the nearest hostile block, [[Decoy]], moving object, [[Meteor Storms|meteor]], or any other specified target within its operational range (adjustable via its control panel), and will always fire on enemy factions' ships and players in range. In [[Survival Mode]] it must be loaded with [[5.56x45mm NATO Magazine]]s to fire, or if while in [[Creative Mode]] it has unlimited ammunition.

The turret take the space of a single cube despite its appearance. The turret has its own internal inventory which needs to be stocked manually with [[5.56x45mm NATO Magazine]]s to function, unlike the [[Gatling Gun]] it cannot use the [[Conveyor Network]] as there are no Conveyor connections.

The Interior Turret is an automatic [[weapon]] that will target and fire upon a variety of targets. Which targets it will fire upon depend on how the control panel settings have been configured, with the options being: [[decoy]]s, [[Meteor Storms|meteors]], enemy faction players, enemy faction ships, and anything that moves (be careful with this option). It will only engage these targets if it is within its maximum engagement range, which is another control panel setting.  It can also be controlled manually via a button on the control panel. All of these options can alternatively be accessed by adding them to the toolbar, or via [[Button Panel|buttons]], [[Timer Block|timers]], and/or [[Programmable Block|programming]].  
+
The interior turret does very minimal, but consistent damage. It is far less powerful than the [[Gatling Turret]], but is relatively cheap and compact using only relatively low-cost ammunition and being able to be fitted into tight corridors. This is very much intended for an anti-personnel role, on the interior of ships and stations to defend key choke points and act as sentries.
  
−
Whilst it is presumably intended to be an anti-personnel weapon for the rooms and corridors of a ship, it is functionally identical to the [[Gatling Turret]], with the only unique feature being that it is considerably smaller (and less powerful). Hence, it works perfectly well as an alternative in situations where a full-size turret won't fit, or if you cannot afford the resources in [[Survival Mode]].  
+
=== Manual Control ===
 +
Players are able to take control of any automated turret by sitting at either a [[Control Station]], [[Flight Seat]], [[Cockpit]] or [[Fighter Cockpit]]. After the player can navigate in the control panel to locate the turret, and click on '''Manual'''. This will bring up the 1st-person view of the turret. The player can move, and shoot with the turret while in this mode - unlike the [[Camera]] the turret does not seem to support zoom functions.

*Interior turrets are better suited for defense against other Space Engineers, and other entities. They aren't as effective at destroying blocks like the larger [[Gatling Turret]].

Overview

Functional as of version 01.027.006, the interior turret is an automatic weapon which will target and fire upon the nearest hostile block, Decoy, moving object, meteor, or any other specified target within its operational range (adjustable via its control panel), and will always fire on enemy factions' ships and players in range. In Survival Mode it must be loaded with 5.56x45mm NATO Magazines to fire, or if while in Creative Mode it has unlimited ammunition.

Usage

The turret take the space of a single cube despite its appearance. The turret has its own internal inventory which needs to be stocked manually with 5.56x45mm NATO Magazines to function, unlike the Gatling Gun it cannot use the Conveyor Network as there are no Conveyor connections.

The interior turret does very minimal, but consistent damage. It is far less powerful than the Gatling Turret, but is relatively cheap and compact using only relatively low-cost ammunition and being able to be fitted into tight corridors. This is very much intended for an anti-personnel role, on the interior of ships and stations to defend key choke points and act as sentries.

Players are able to take control of any automated turret by sitting at either a Control Station, Flight Seat, Cockpit or Fighter Cockpit. After the player can navigate in the control panel to locate the turret, and click on Manual. This will bring up the 1st-person view of the turret. The player can move, and shoot with the turret while in this mode - unlike the Camera the turret does not seem to support zoom functions.
