Not neccessarily:

In testing prior to the "fixes" involved (thank you again mazzi), I could induce similar to reports back then where a person would get what you describe, with the lack of crew positions, but we would also find incomplete gun descriptions, with whole sections of the "ActiveUserPlayerUnits.upc" missing, and at the least, missing lines. Be sure and look through that "NewColetrainsAndOthersDGfix.pdf" file in the Support / HowTo folder, and see what you see, or zip up your Save folder, and link me to it via a PM, and I'll look at it and try to "fix" things.

Also yes I am using Vickers Officers Quarters Mod. Is this a known issue with his mod and FotRSU Compatibility?

OK, glad it worked.

I would finish the current career. ~IF~ current tests go as anticipated, we might have the next version out prior to your finishing that career. I am in the final stages of Flotillas edits, make an alpha build and hand-off to s7rikeback for further evaluation, brainstorming and further tests, then we'll see what we have (s7rikeback has completed a LOT of double-checking)...

This is where the game AI does not differentiate "friendly" AI, and "enemy" AI, so if you fix the former, the latter "kills" you... sigh

Opinions are not blasphemy - Basically speaking though, anything v1.2 in all 3 (4??) iterations have gun issues, especially if vicker's Officer's Country is used without its "patch". The main problem though being, as mazzi pointed out, the fact that the 3" gun is not enumerated in the Balao & Tench upc files. For me, that is worse "logic" (since the boats never had the guns) than the USN's lack of imagination in naming convention, and the use of tinfoil, folded tri-hats (quite literally, if you remember from early versions of FotRSU ). I much prefer the 'modern' way of naming US submarines, and surely they could have come up with something besides fishies names, but alas... it's all history, so take your Cuttlefish or Bream (or any one of hundreds of oddball names ), and go sink some ships, deck gun or no!!!
