the top turrets are borked on the y-8's with this publish.
had couple of friends try this on my ship.
you enter top turret and the scrreen is either completly black or it looks normal but can't move like theres no gun in there. i had a player made tractor beam in top turret. you can toggle it on but it will not turn off nor can you move the turret. the same will happen even with a gun in the top turret.
also if you move the ship with someone in the top turret it will leave them behind floating in space! you can't see them but they see the ship fly off into the distance.
basically the top turret is completly useless. and the with the screen appearing completly blank when entering the turret seems to be a random issue.

Im having the same problem with my yt-1300. I put 2 heavy gauss cannons in my YT (top & bottom turrets) the top turret works fine. The bottom does not show the turret at all, however I can go into the turret but it is unmoveable.

I think that player crafted tractor beams always did this in the Y-8 top turret. The quest reward tractor beam is reported to work. I have not tried it myself.

the player made one did at first but was fixed used it just before the patch also tried the the reward one same result plus this doesn't explain why it doing it also with a gun or laser mounted up there either or like a friend of minedalso discover like in the above post his bottom turret on the yt-1300 is experiencing the same issues. so far it seems like my nova on the other hand is working fine
