Turret Bullet Concepts
To test the new Resilience module, I hacked together an automatic turrent for Myriad which automatically aims and fires at the nearest target.

A small change was required to the Myriad bullets in order for the turret to work so regular Myriad Bullets cannot be used.

The *damage* caused by a bullet is set by the rezzing turret, not stored within the bullet itself.

Turret Bullet Setup

 * 1) Find (or make) a no script parcel to create your bullet on.
 * 2) Create your bullet model with the +X (red) axis facing in the direction you want the bullet to fire
 * 3) Drop in a puff of smoke texture.
 * 4) Drop in a bullet hit sound effect
 * 5) Edit the script to:
 * 6) Set RICOCHET variable to the name of your puff of smoke texture
 * 7) Set the SOUND variable to the name of your ricochet sound effect FIXME need two sounds - ricochet on miss - splat on hit
 * 8) Drop in the Myriad Lite Turret Bullet script
 * 9) Set the bullet physical and temporary
 * 10) Quickly take the bullet into inventory before the temp-on-rez flag deletes it.
 * 11) Drop the Turret Bullet into your Turret
