Sorry for the late reply. What you list in the Examples is exactly what I do atm. In addition, a lot more options are available and everything is regrouped.Yes, we still plan with 3 separate cfg files. For good reasons.
BMS can manage the Falcon BMS.cfg at will.
You have to set your User.cfg once and can carry it over to newer versions. Same for the Hosts / e.g. dedicated servers. I really don’t see a problem here. -
Document: BMS Technical Manual, BMS 4.36.0
Page: 10-148, section 10.6.4, first paragraph
Original sentence: The HOTAS controls in the F-16 have a defined set of functionalities (see chapter “Hands-on controls”) which is often reproduced by (v)pilots in their joystick layout.
Corrected sentence: The HOTAS controls in the F-16 have a defined set of functionalities which is often reproduced by (v)pilots in their joystick layout.There is no chapter in the manual called “Hands-on controls”. The same sentence was in the BMS 4.35.0 version of the manual. Apparently, it was referring the reader to page 2-18 of that manual. The figure on that page has been removed from the 4.36.0 manual.

Document: BMS Training Missions
Page: 209
Original sentence: “GW: 35950 (fuel 6.6 dry). 3 AIM-9P, 2 wing tanks, 1 ACMI pod and 1 Sniper targeting pod.”
Corrected sentence: “GW: 35950 (fuel 6.6 dry). 2 AIM-9M, 1 AIM-9P, 2 wing tanks, 1 ACMI pod and 1 Sniper targeting pod.”The loadout does not match what is described in the first paragraph of section 17.4 (page 217) nor the training TE.
Page: 210 and 221
The two identical MFD figures of the SMS page seem incorrect. OSB 6 indicates 2 A-9LM. Should OSB 6 not read 2 A-9M?GC

Original sentence: “Failure to do so will cause an EQUIP HOT caution light as soon as the systems are powered by the main generator, because they will not be being cooled correctly.
Corrected sentence: “Failure to do so will cause an EQUIP HOT caution light as soon as the systems are powered by the main generator, because they will not be cooled correctly.”Alternatively, it could be changed to “Failure to do so will cause an EQUIP HOT caution light as soon as the systems are powered by the main generator, because they are not being cooled correctly.”

Thank you Kolbe for these clarifications concerning the three configuration files that we must analyze for the proper maintenance of our squadrons in the future. Much appreciated.
My point of view was simply that as a squadron leader we now have to check these two (or three) separate files in our members since the user.cfg file can hold options that are possibly no longer desirable after an update (example U1 to U2).

Original sentence: Once you have tally, go back to dogfight mode, which will snooze the radar, and keep him padlocked.
Corrected sentence: If you enter dogfight with a bugged target, it will still be radiating ACM20. Press TMS DN to get NO RAD (snooze). If you entered dogfight with no bugged target then it will be ACM20 NO RAD (snooze). -
