Did you know that if you have an item destroyed, for example your 20 mm and 40 mm flak guns, if you go to the damage screen, on the left side there is a vertical column that lists all the items in your boat. Scroll down to the destroyed items. It will say "Unpack 20mm". Click on that and the crew apparently unpacks and replaces the destroyed item. It takes a long time.

I do not know if this holds true for every item in the boat, probably not, but it worked for the two I mentioned.

How long did this think go unnoticed?

I'll have to check it out...

*off to go fight a DD on the surface and get some stuff destroyed*

It reads "UPack20mm...", which means it's an upgradepack like radars and deck guns, stuff you can add to your sub at the base. Not all of them start with "UPack", but some do. No idea what clicking it in that screen does, my bet is moving the item up on the to-do list of repairs.

Oh, my mistake.
