I copied it exactly as it should be, as worked fine on other boats did this with, the crew slots for fore 40 MM show up and in the file it is listed as 40 MM, but when go to equipment screen while in port, shows a 20 mm forward and gives not option to upgrade? wth? lol

Also interesting, when start the actual sim, have a fully functional 40 MM gun forward, which can be manned by AI and myself. lol how do remedy this to reflect true loadout in the equipment menu?
Maybe an edited equip. screen for in port, reflecting the change to 40MM's both fore & aft, per chance... just a guess...

Hopefully, propbeanie can pop in for a moment & cross calibrate that.... assessment.
