3 gun turret bug in "A" and "Y" positions

[eagle62]

There seems to be a bug keeping me from either building or modifying ship when "hull form too slim for 3-gun turret in "A" or "Y" positions.

I don't have trouble with the 3-gun turret above 7" guns based on technology level, but the above is preventing modification of the affected ships in any way.

Is there a fix on the horizon?

Can you provide the specifics (screenshot?) for the ship you are attempting to build?

Bear in mind there is a limitation earlier on with triple 'end' turrets on faster ships; this is because the very narrow hull forms required early on to achieve higher speeds were too narrow to accept triple mounts on the ends. Later on you can gain tech that advances hull form design which overcomes this issue.

I kind of have the same problem. I have a 38k BB w triples in A and Y, but now I can't rebuild it due to the narrow hull error message.

Was the ship designed pre-1.00.19?

I'm thinking if the ships were designed pre-1.00.19, then the patch applied, it might cause the behaviour seen.

[bobert]

That makes sense. Too bad it kind of hoses those ships. Sad face.

I’ve got this bug or update when trying to rebuild BB’s and BC’s mostly built by the AI. I primarily start my games in 1920 as ether US or UK. Did not see it happen till the latest patch

I've had this happen too, and the only rebuild you can do is a carrier conversion, although you're going to get a pretty terrible carrier if you're starting with a 22-knot battleship.
