Default Cannot use Flak Gun

Please forgive me if this is in the wrong spot D:

Anyways, when I try to use the Flak Gun, it simply just wont be manned (Even when I say to man the flak gun.) People come, and then they just leave. The ship goes under water with like every wave, so they leave, then won't come back. I was annoyed with missing every opportunity to take some kills.

These are the mods I have activated, if it helps:
Mod Enabler - v2.6.0.157

[T:\Ubisoft\Silent Hunter 5\MODS]

Accurate German Flags
#Equipment_Upgrades_Fix_v1_4_Patch_1_HotFix

Hi Moldy'
If the seas are too rough, the guns cannot be manned. Depending on how you have your game modded if at all, some times the game will let you man the guns, but you'll notice the "submerged icon" will show up if the boat reaches a depth of (7)? or so, this is when the gun crew disappears. I think they can even be counted as washed overboard if you're not careful (however I haven't seen this just read about it).
So, that should be the problem, don't man the guns in rough seas.
Good Hunting

PS: there is a mod called something like "any weather guns" or "all weather guns" that'll let you man them in rough seas.

Ohh, if it's part of the game then more challenge there is!

Thanks for the reply.
