... and it is important that a person Saves prior to going to Battle Stations against the enemy, if you have swapped ends with the gun, or added a new double mount. If you do not Save, Exit and return, then the gun station will not show as manned, even though they are there. Once a Save has been done, all is well. But you have to make certain you have gun crew slots before you leave... We cannot guarantee 100% reliability, since it is, after all, Silent Hunter 4... (not forgetting that propbeanie helped mod it...)

According to my handy-dandy "SH4_Q-Ref_Card_Front.jpg" (found in the main game folder), it should be <C> - does it not function correctly on your system? I am not at a proper SH4 computer right now... (the wife has commandeered the laptop for her email app thingie) - I don't want to say that too loud... she might hear me.

Thank you on behalf of the team. Smooth sailing and happy hunting - and may your boat not have HORS engines! (wouldn't that be cool if we could emulate them, like we can the dud torpedoes??)...
