Turntables are mounted platforms for devices. Machinery such as cannons and tractor beams can be mounted on top of the turntables, which allow the device to rotate around the Y-axis. The mounted machinery must be mounted to a cradle to enable rotation around the X-axis.

Basic information

A turntable's target rotation can be set with the universal tool, or by connecting it to a control device such as a lever or a button. The turntable's turret rotation device field will rotate the turntable to the specified number in degrees, and does not allow relative adjustments (eg: +5 or -5). Each turntable has a base that must be mounted to a device base, and a rotating piece which can accept a variety of other machinery, such as cradles or weapon mounts. The speed at which a turntable rotates is determined by the mass attached to its rotating surface, and they are too weak to withstand the stress of a thruster. There are also provisions for sockets across turntables, which disallows users from cabling to devices mounted to a turntable.
