Thanks SeeingRed. We appreciate those links. Unfortunately, they are for after-the-fact problems. It would sure be nice to find a true "solution" and avoid losing the gun crew altogether... Sniper297 uses v1.4 (I am reasonably certain), and that might be what keeps him from losing the crew. I'm going to compare the files between the two versions (I have one of each). Most likely though, it's in the program files, and not the text files, where the issue lies... maybe... lol
