(Blocking Progress) Ships of the Line PS-Cannons Don't Work!

I think I’m getting close to completing my story in Orr. I’ve already done the Arrah dungeon story, which featured cannons in the finale, that seem to work.
However, all along my personal story, I’ve had to use Siege type weapons numerous times and not once did they work. I’ve managed to find a way around them so far, but now I’ve hit a wall. I’m currently doing “Ships of the Line”, where I’m on a ship and supposed to fire these 5 cannons at the enemy situated onshore but the cannons don’t work. Either I’m doing something wrong, or these weapons have somehow bugged out in my game.
As far as I can see, I have no option to adjust the direction of any of these weapons. The only option I get is to “Use” them and when I do, a skill bar appears. Every skill I click, except shield absorption, says “out of range”. I read someone’s reply to a similar post that said you should hold the skill down to gain better range, so I’ve gone back into the instance and tried it, but it still say’s the same thing (out of range) no matter how long or short I hold down skill buttons. Please help! I would be very sad if my story ended here after all the work I put into it, plus I really want to know how it ends XD.
Thanks

Do you have “Fast Cast Ground Targeting” turned on in the options panel? If you do, it’s trying to target your mouse cursor position, which is probably hovering over a point that’s too far.
