What isn’t working? What do you need help with? Just posting your code won’t get you help…

[Laser-Turret]

Your problem seems to be that your emergency stop only stops the motors once, however it does not deactivate your other parts of the code which continuously reactivate the motors. You may look into the stop project command or consider other ways you could tie the emergency stop into effecting the rest of your code.

[Laser-Turret]

You could also add 2 lines of code inside the emergency stop to set the motor velocities to zero
