    I don't know how to programming this. And my friends too. How to make this script? like a L4D2, HL2 mounted machine gun. Please show me a C# example!

    Have you tried googling these four words: unity gun turret mouse

    For me at least three big tutorials come up showing how to do various things like that.

    Or failing Kurt's advice: do you have an L4D2, HL2 mounted machine gun for me to try and then implement the code?

    I've all tried methods. But not all are satisfactory. And I just implement code similar to L4D2, HL2, but I will not implement it the same.

    What I want is that the center of rotation of the camera is at the center of the object. Like a third person camera.

    When player is looks around. (Moving camera with mouse)

    So what class is this for?

    Anyway, to implement what you are looking for, the following approach may help:
    have the turret object center at theblack center.

    Make camera and player each a child of the main turret and place them locally relative to the turret

    Use lookRotation() to turn the turret towards the pink circle
