Can anyone point me to rules for riggers in combat? Specifically, I'm wondering if a Rigger can pilot a vehicle and manually fire the weapons at the same time (ie. not using sensors). Are there penalties? Does it matter if a weapon is in a fixed mount vs. turret? I can see it being MUCH easier if it were in a fixed mount as the Rigger can then see where he's flying and shooting as opposed to diverting his attention between driving/flying and trying to acquire a target. Also, is it a Simple or Complex action to shoot while piloting?
