Fire Deck Gun in Bad Weather

Don't know of a mod but its simple enough to do yourself. Just open the sub you want to use .cfg file, scroll down a bit to the "Properties" section.
There, simply raise the max wind speed number in the "StormConditions" line to whatever desired. The gun will be manned at wind speeds below that number.
Sub .cfg files are found in path data\submarine\subx, etc.
Your crew will also only wear their storm gear at weather above these numbers, so if set to high they'll never wear their gear if that matters to you.
I imagine if you look at the GWX mod you'll see this is all it does.
I have no interest in either the flak or deck gun ever being manned, but I do have an interest in my crew not being in silly summer clothes at any time in the North Atlantic, so I've lowered the max wind speed setting to 1 so they almost always have their gear on.
