So far our weapons do not interact with static collisionshapes. A laser shot simply goes through a static collisionshape and does not hit it.

Fix that behaviour so that a spaceship can hide from enemy attacks behind an asteroid.

Turrets are stationary towers equiped with weapons that automatically attack enemies.

• Create a model of a defense tower or use an existing one. E.g. ​http://opengameart.org/content/turret-reviwed
• Create a proper texture.
• Create a class derived from controllable entity to describe the turrents moving capabilities.
• How can enemies be detected properly? Design a controller for the defensive turret.
• Equip the turret with a weapon. Create a weaponsetting.

A new turret model + texture + some logic has been created in the autumn semester 2012. Some issues still have to be fixed:

• Limit the turret's angular movements (somehow it does not work properly, although the right function has been overwritten).
• Limit the turret's linear movements. It should stick to its base and stay there.
• Improve the turret's AI such that it can make a difference between friends and foes.
• Attach the turret to the Planetary Destroyer or embed it in a level. (What about having the transporter be defended by a turret?)

The game does not yet have any way to create in-game videos. To add this functionality to Orxonox, we need to implement a scriptable camera controller so that the game can take control away from the player and show what is happening in an automated fashion.

A good documentation and manual on how to script the camera controller belongs to this project to make it useful.
