In head off the ugly upgrade bug in TMO which takes away radar, and makes it non functional after, when returned from patrol on January 15 1944(upgrade scheduled in sim for 1-25-1944, so would likley get it after next patrol, if ever) , while in port, I edited the activeplayerunits file in the career save file to the late war Balao, which adds MS 32 paint scheme and a 40 MM forward instead of 20 MM,so now have 40 MM forward and Aft.

I copied it exactly as it should be, as worked fine on other boats did this with, the crew slots for fore 40 MM show up and in the file it is listed as 40 MM, but when go to equipment screen while in port, shows a 20 mm forward and gives not option to upgrade? wth? lol

Also interesting, when start the actual sim, have a fully functional 40 MM gun forward, which can be manned by AI and myself. lol how do remedy this to reflect true loadout in the equipment menu?
