Scrap Mechanic I How to use an orientation block.

This is a videa to show you how to make and use a Orientation block. I made it for my helicopter cannon and tank turret, but u can use it for alot of other purposes.
Have fun and don't be afraid to ask for help.

Hi, I made the turret like you but it doesn't work. is this due to an update or something else?

[@stiggy21]

Hi, make sure that you havent pressed E on any value block. Also check that they are painted the right color. If all fails check for any connections that are backwards. Hope this helps.

Nice tutorial, on vehicle it works fine until I turn the vehicle, then orientation block doesn't aim in direction where I look at, is there any solution for this issue?
Nevermind, I found solution, if anyone met the same problem: set camera to free mode to make it work properly

I am not sure what the problem could be, if u give me some more info on the bearings location and seat i might see what could go wrong.
Its been a while since i played the game so a bit rusty.

I set up turret with orientation block like you did on video, then I put this on vehicle with seat behind turret. Orientation block was working correctly, (it aimed where I was looking at), but when I turned vehicle to any direction it stopped working properly (it was aiming completely different direction than I was looking at).
With trial and error method I found out that camera mode must be set to "free mode" to make it work properly when you are in seat (vehicle).
I left the comment because I think that info can be helpful if anyone will encounter same problem.
