Default about new career start and changing turm upgrade

Hello sailors ...After a year I m planing to start again with Dw excellent mod,new career..
We talk about turm upgrade issues a lot
IF YOU HAVE THE TURM UPGRADE ISSUE (from SKIDMAN):

« Both the Typ VII and the Typ IX U-Boat will receive conning tower upgrades as the game proceeds. Every time I was awarded a new "Turm", the result was a submarine that could not move forward, or backward. A "Cannot comply" message was displayed instead. The crew screen showed missing and empty slots. This bug has been experienced and described before, and -as lurker put it- it is a nasty one. So from my experience a conning tower upgrade means end of your career. This is not acceptable.

How can you continue? Well, there is a workaround: You have to create a dummy file.

I try this ofcourse, but this applies only when we recieve turm upgrade in base,bunker...My question : when we change other equipment(deck gun,flack gun,sensors...) no need for creating dummy file

dex,

what is your question?
did you mean to ask: do i have to perform the turm upgrade issue if i upgrade specific equipment while in port?

if it is, then the answer is: no, it is not required.

the Turm-upgrade thing has to be performed when you get a new Turm. this happens after a mission and you receive a screen that announces the upgrade. when it happens, you will know that it happened, and you will have to react to it.

Good Luck, Herr Kaleun!

Hi...Yes you are in right...I mean on that
So conlusion is: 3 turms upgrade= 3 dummy save created files each time

For example IXB have 3 turm upgrades,VIIC sub have 4 turm upgrades I think...

no, you only have to create a dummy once for each upgrade.
and if there are three upgrades, then you would have to perform the process three separate times IF you are given the upgrade.
i believe that your performance has to be good enough to be given the upgrade, so you may not qualify for one or more upgrades based on your performance.

if that is the correct count of turms then, yes, you have the possibility of performing the fix-process that many times.
