A subunit is a sprite that is technically part of another unit but that turns and attacks independently. As far as I know, there are only four subunits: Tank turret, Sieged Tank turret, Goliath turret, and the top part of the Missile Turret.

Well, this one is technically a turret, this is true, but it is not a subunit as such because it just a sprite, not a units.dat entry.

Hmm I thought that too, at first, but I don't find any ref to that.

I stand corrected. It's a turret, not a subunit, since it's only images.dat and not units.dat. ::Bows::
