Cannon bug on the Britannian ships?

I just bought a Britannian ship and I can place several of the cannons... but the front weapon pad and 3 on one side say "There is already a weapon deployed here." Anyone have any idea how to fix this? If it's bugged, can Devs replace my ship??? I have no idea what is going on here, have moved it, have dry docked it, have redeployed it.... no idea how to fix this.

maybe try crossing a server line?

have you tried turning the boat around?

I tried turning it near the shore with both directions, I tried dry docking and redeploying it, I tried crossing the server boundary, none fixed it so far. Someone else on general chat said they were having the same problem with their front weapon pad, it says the same thing. The GM messaged me via email and said that he had missed me, but that it should be working now, but I logged in and tried it and they still were not working. It seems to be selective, the person on general chat said it was only their front one. For me, it is the 3 front ones on the right side and the front one. All of my left side and the very back 1 on the right side work properly. Both me and the person on general chat were having problems with the Britannian ship. So it may only be the Britannian ship, but I am not sure of that either.

Things I have yet to try: Deploying the ship in fel or tokuno. I have only tried Tram so far.

@Polaris

Did you try to cross both Serpent Pillars back and forth the Lost Lands ?

Maybe that type of crossing might reset your cannons ?

I never got around to trying the serpent pillars, or deploying the ship in Tokuno or Fel waters. Those are the only things I believe I did not try. However a GM messaged me about 20-30 minutes ago and walked around my boat and fixed the broken weapon pads for me. I am not sure what the problem was, but he was able to fix them right away. Thank you Devs! All cannons working perfectly now. Now to dry dock them repeatedly to try to get pilot names I want...... 

same issue with my ship. any advice?

Seems like the GM is the solution.

Otherwise, ditch the Brit and get the Orc ship. It's much more powerful.

My guess is that's how you broke them in the first place...remove all of your cannons first if you're going to do that.

I had to call a GM to place the cannons for me
