The only way to make the guns available in "all weather" is to alter that line of data so that any weather state is still considered "good" enough to allow the guns to be manned. But this redefines what constitutes "good" weather across the board, so anything that also functions based on that definition - like whether or not your watch breaks out the oilskins - is affected as well. Essentially the All Weather Guns mod removes the concept of "bad" weather from the game for any feature/function that relies on that same set of parameters.

Rgr that.....this was the trade off....oilskins or deck gun availability, not both.
