Aperture Science Rocket Turret

Turret is firing

Template:Portal series point It spawns an Aperture Science Rocket Turret.

Note:In Portal 2, rocket turrets need to be sent a SetTarget input every time before they are turned on. The target can then be dynamically switched without deactivating the turret.

Bug:In Portal 2, rockets are spawned with a speed of 0. You will need to use a VScript to set the rocket to the correct speed.  [todo tested in ?]
