When I am playing SH3 1.4 warship mod v2 Italy part i noticed at least 3 of these ships do not have Deck Ammo..when i man the deck gun station it simply says no more ammunition....is there some way to correct this or am i missing something?
thanks

I got the same thing tonight, with GWX/SH3C as my only mods. The GWX ammo indicator on deck said 0 HE rounds left, but the invetory screen (I key) showed 400 (220? i dont remember now, but it was a lot), onboard.

First time using deck gun in GWX, so i'm hoping this isnt a bug.

NB: The deck gun is not automatically loaded with ammunition. Stock Silent Hunter III has hardcoded the deck gun crew to load armor piercing (AP) ammunition; however, GWX has eliminated all armor-piercing and star shell ammunition since U-boats did not carry these ammunition types historically. You (the player) therefore must tell the deck gun crew what kind to use since there is no AP ammunition. You have two options to load the deck gun.
1. Order the watch officer to operate the gun, and then use the watch officer icon to order the deck gun to open fire.
2. Left click on the ―High Explosive Shell‖ whenever you are in the deck gun view, as shown in Figure 50, and your gun will be loaded at all times for the rest of your mission or patrol unless you run out of ammunition.
