Changed the deck gun to stern mount again and sure enough, the deck gun crew station disappears. Not sure what happens to the actual crew members that were there before the change, but after.. there's no place to assign the deck gun with crew.

I'm hoping to have this fixed.
I've got a working Tambor (that's the sub I've been working on) that has had no problems with the various points of start time. FORTSU has twice the start time points than the stock game, and so far what I've been able to do is get all the start dates to give you a choice in either Stern or Bow Deck Guns mounts (purchased through Renown when in port) and the Crew Management screen corresponds to the switch every time.
I'm going to have the default DG to be the 3"50cal Stern mount for all subs...all times. It will be your choice to keep the Stern mount or choose Bow mounts, along with the choice of upgrading to a 4"50 or a 5"25 at specific times (as they become available). The Double 5".25 will be offered Jan 1, 1945 for all boats, except for the S-Class....they won't have the option to move to a Stern mount at any time either.
Your AA guns will start out as the Browning .50 cal at the Stern mount position. They will have the same kind of offer for an upgrade to a 20mm single through the purchase of Renown. They too will receive upgrades up to the 40mm Bofors (first single, then twin), either Stern or Bow mount, as the time period evolves. The crews will increase in size as the specific gun warrants. So far, I've had success with the one sub......the rest will follow.
It's simply the process of getting all subs to work on the same page, with all upgrades doing the same. I think this will produce the kind of smooth, seamless upgrades/refit that we expect.
