I am still not 100% clear on how it behaves at all.

It should. Doesn't it?

The logic of my fix is meant to be:

The system is unhomed. state-0
The component is enabled, it starts to home. State 0 -> 10 -> 11
The pulse and home are seen, current-position = 1, state -> 0
Motor commands off, turret backs onto latch. Drops off of pulse, new
logic is true. current-position = 0 (Not usually valid, but OK)
Movement command comes in, the turret starts to move, sees the pulse,
current-position = 1.
If the requested tool is 1, it stops and latches again.
If it is more than 1, then it should move the right number of steps.

Note: As it stands jogging won't work as current_position is one less
than the actual position.
Did you check M6 Tnn commands, or only jogging?
