Buy the power up and you can use buttons 2 (ALT) and button 4 (Left Shift) on the player to rotate the turret without issue. This worked also for player two with S and W. Closing as not a bug. iveinsomnia: Make sure when doing any testing, it is done with the keyboard and default mappings. Your button 1 and button 4 could mean different things than what MAME calls button 1 and button 4.
