Default Same thing happened to me

I also was able to use some renoun after my first return to port and after upgrading the deck gun, found out that there are no crew slots to man it. I can shoot manually but takes forever to load. I think I have run back inside and get another shell myself since no one will help me.

It looks like a bug in the regular program since I have not applied any mods but I am up to patch 1.4.

I decided to go on out on patrol 2, finish it quickly and come on back to the barn to see what happens. I might have to start a new career if I can't get the proper slots.

Any thoughts out there?

Default Deck gun crew

From what I've read it appears that if we put the deck guns back the way they were before we left port when we return, it should fix the problem. We may also have to move some of the crew around to make the slots re-appear.

Happened to me as well when I tried to move the gun from the stern mount to the bow. No crew slots available. (RFB 1.52)

Default No help

Finally made it back in port and swaped out the deck gun for the previous version. Checked the crew before leaving port and guess what.....still no crew slots. I haven't left port yet, but would really like to use the deck gun on this tour. Open for any help. I'm running TMO and RSRD and I'm playing 1.5.

Default Still no gun crew

I went out, finished the 2nd patrol without the gun crew, sank plenty of tonnage, came back to Pearl and still no crew slots. Looks like i'll have to bag this career and start anew.

Be careful of these automatic upgrades.

Save Early. Save Often.

Known stock game bug and easy to fix, although some editing of files is required. Use the search to find a solution.

edit: Had the the link to one thread in my bookmarks: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...highlight=deck

I wouldn't say it's a easy fix. I have been hunting for the file and lines for a while now.
