Typically whenever I get a major overhaul they outfit me with a 3" - so the player needs to 'spend renown' to purchase the gun they had.... some mods do away with paying for equipment.

I'm surprised they moved your gun though. This can be corrected by hand editing that in port save - it isn't hard, but it can be a pita.

"Fix for deck gun crew slots disappearing.
After digging around I have found a really simple method to fix the problem of the deck gun crew slots disappearing.

Simply open the ActiveUserPlayerUnits.upc file in a text editor, and remove all instances of "AdditionalRepository". I was able to do this with 1 easy find and replace command. The file can be found in the SH4 folder in your documents. ../SH4/data/cfg/SaveGames/*/ActiveUserPlayerUnits.upc

What you are doing is changing the lines like:
[UserPlayerUnit 1.Compartment 9.CrewMemberSlotAdditionalRepository 1]
to read.....
[UserPlayerUnit 1.Compartment 9.CrewMemberSlot 1] "
and these two topics:

neumanf15's . both are helpful in understanding the upc file.
Hopefully when you RTB there won't be any issues with them moving where you want your gun mounted. If they do, you know how to fix it.

Even if the game files are perfect, sometimes a glitch happens. I just deal with this issue when/if it happens, and head back out to sea.

Happy Hunting!
