Default Added more guns to the sub. How to?

Ok i been messing with the goblin editor, i found ways of increasing the speed of the torps, the damage of the torps, heck my 88 MM has 35,000 rounds and fires like a machine gun with a 100 round magazine now. its a nice gun really. But i would like to ask...how do i add more deck guns to my submarine. I would add so much if i knew how. **** id even add a double barrel deck gun or right now i am trying to craft a Gatling deck gun with 9 barrels at the moment. But right now i would like to know how would i be able to add 2-4 more deck guns around my submarine and have them all auto manned. thank you for your time.

There are not enough nodes to add anymore weapons to your sub.
Unless you are skilled with TDW's editor you cannot add new nodes for any new weapons, and it would be much harder than you think to add new working nodes for your submarine and get them to work, I guess.

AI ship components can not be placed onto the Player's submarine.

Welcome onboard Bismarck83!
Just make sure not to put too much extra weight on your submarine, or your crew might decide to leave you stranded

they wont, i killed the cook last night for not shaving. besides they love my boat so far, top speed 40 knots, deck gun holding 30,000 rounds and fires 10 rounds per 2 seconds with a 100 round mag. they couldnt be happier. Still i was trying to find away to use the model of the AI ships on the SUB there is a way to do it. in the editor they are all the same but trying to force it to see it as a submarine cannon rather then a Ship cannon is something else. also trying to replace my AA guns with deck guns thats also being a problem. not even close to finishing my mini gun deck gun. seems to cause....my submarine to go all grey and crash the game lol.

yea my Uboat isnt very silent. I am still trying to slap quad battleship guns on each of the turret slots and shorten and reduce the con tower. I guess i am trying to make a pocket battleship lol and yes SH5 is what i play. if i can figure out how to put a Deckgun in the place of a AA gun slot spot id be able to fix up something to put battleship guns on it from the AI ships

You can't, the ships guns require the ships AI to guide them, and they lack all the component files that all the Player submarine guns have, so you could not use them.
