      Haven’t noticed before, but it seems that it broke a bit in U3.

      Chaff/flare release , if BInterval is set to 0 it will deplete dispenser quickly. whatever BQuantity is set. can’t figure out pattern , but it drops too many , if not all.

      Found working minimum for BInterval is 0.020s and for SInterval 0.500s.

      Seems that floating point in SInterval is one place off to the right. There are 3 leading zeroes before floating point. SI=000.50

      edit.

      Also in F18E/F , dispensers are limited by Bingo (chaff/flare) setting in ini , rather then full amount specified in dat file…
      In other words, if Bingo chaff/flare is 6/5 , then at this point Betty says CHAFF FLARE LOW , but no release occurs anymore , it never says CHAFF FLARE OUT.

      –aaah, my bad!!! to answer myself

      … those burst/sequnce intervals above are in within limits , RTFM dash 1-1 , … otoh… it worked well before with intervals 0 (if want to drop 2 at the same time) … well 20msec is no lag 😄

      …and, when CMDS/EWS in semi/auto , it never depletes below bingo … duh… have to switch to manual (somehow I think I’ve read that somewhere before and forgot)

      Case closed… sorry.
