Why do you do this when making a turret fire a bullet at something?
I was looking at tutorials for turrets and the line of code he used for the velocity is this.
bullet.Velocity = turret.CFrame.LookVector * bulletSpeed
I thought LookVector was the direction; How does the LookVector have anything to do with the velocity?

LookVector is to determine the position. Velocity is a calculation of the change in position. So basically it would determine how fast the bullet. Also velocity is deprecated so you don't want to use it.
Anyways here's the documentation
