The chamber pot, a portable basin, was used in Medieval times. It is exactly what you think it is and was used exactly the way you think it would be.
I think they looked like a big box with a hole in it that goes out to that weird water that surrounds the castle.
Yes, they were often built so they hung out over the moat, if there was one, or just over the side. Ships had exactly the same system, so no-one had to spend time cleaning up.

Apparently the toilet was a hole at the top of the tower it had a long shoot that went down into the moat. That was not the main purpose of the moat though. The purpose of the moat was to make it harder for opponents to attack. WIth all that poop and pee in the moat opponents wouldn't dare try to cross.
Toilets were usually sited within a castle's outer wall with a drop down to either a river or moat below. Another option was above a long shaft that went down into the ground. Link below shows a picture of some medieval castle toilets.
