Darkfish - the Vickers quad mounts which we need to remove are on the Renown, not the hood.
Am currently using your method to add rotating fire directors and radars to most ships - tho I'm running into the problem of the model components being too big i.e. radar not able to rotate because it's part of a bigger part we don't want to rotate. I'm also plaaying with the idea of creating new working radars in sensors.dat for the ships radars - for the simple reason the currently displayed radar models DO not translate their damage to the functioning radar we use on the ships (which is in effect hidden U boat radar antenae). However - to do this I need to find data regarding radar models, looks, and specifications. Not found any yet.
If we can't do the above, I have another trick, but it involves making the radar zones "children" of a custom zone we define ... when the custom zone is destroyed, our working U boat radar should be - the downside is that it won't enable repairable damage - the radar will either be fine or will be destroyed ... or slightly damaged if the very small zone for the stock submarine radars actually takes a hit - in my testing this happens far too little for it to be satisfactory.
