Sorry, no. Has been tried, but no one succeeded.

And try searching next time.

wow so our mod (IA) is really screwed. AT-ATs are supposed to have heads that move left and right... but not 360 degrees...

I thought that the Marauder tank didn't have a turret that could spin 360 degrees :/

It doesn't spin at all, which is the only other option you have. Either it spins or it doesn't, no way in between.

Yeah, but having no spin would make the AT-AT impossible to use since the cannons are stationary and shoot in only one direction, so the body would have to align to the target... and those AT-ATs sure are slow... let alone slow at turning in place.

Then have the AT-AT's weapons use AcceptableAimDelta = xx

The xx is the number of degrees the weapon can fire in each direction.

It's what keeps the Raptor's and MiGs from having to align perfectly.

That doesn't make the turret turn though, it just lets the weapon be fired in a direction other than the exact facing. Beware though, if you have a fixed turret and a high AcceptableAimDelta, the shots will appear to come out of the barrel sideways.

I'm aware, thank you.
