Re: [pygame] Not sure what to call this.

You may want to look at the cannon code in my nascent game pen:

http://pen.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pen/

The cannon part (code is in data/parts/cannon.py) has a barrel that can 
be rotated around a base, but only in a certain range.  If you want to 
see it in action, download the game, run pen.py from the src/ directory, 
and then edit a level and use the scrollwheel on a cannon.

Hope this is helpful.
