Crew can't man deck gun

Turns out I can't personally man the guns either..
Guess the only solution is to live with it or reinstall & cross my fingers.

Of course you can't man the gun if the crew aren't already doing so, just like you can't lock the UZO onto a target if the crew don't see it. it's a mistake, but there's not much we can do about it now.

I would say reinstall. I've never had that happen, but I can see where it's possible.

Sorry there.. I made a kind of unconscious assumption that the reader was aware that not being able to man the guns - crew or myself - took place in sight of an enemy vessel within gun range. I know I can't man the guns when there's no target. I'll reinstall. Thanks for the All weather fix link.

Probably my misunderstanding. I didn't mean "of course" as dismissive, but a feeble attempt at humor. I realize you're having a problem I've never encountered. It's just that stupid conundrum: If it won't let you put a crewman there, it won't let you man the gun yourself either. I hope you get it sorted out.

But is it possible that this problem is due to the fatigue of the crew and need to be adjusted in basic.cfg

Although the message was for the weather
