turretPath: Array - path to the turret with required camera

since 2.08

temporary: Boolean - (Optional, default false) if set, the syntax also works with non-stabilised turrets.
If set to true, the engine will automatically remove the lock-on once the turret reaches its target. If the target is out of turret's reach, the turret will move to the maximum of its capacity towards the target.

If temporary is not set and target is out of possible view, the turret will move to its limit and get stuck there, with blocked input.

The vehicle has to have a stabilized optic for this command to work with ASL position.
