[FIXED] BELL character in log output.

Hey, real minor issue but it drove me crazy for a while and I thought I'd point it out. I was tailing dcs.log for unrelated reasons, and kept hearing the windows chime noise every 10 seconds. Each 10 seconds I was seeing this chunk of logging:

I think there's a bell character being output as part of this. Stopping the log tail made the beeping go away (I thought it was a dcs / mission scripting error at the time).

BELL character in log output.

 

I’ve fixed this issue now by just removing those outputs to the log. Probably some conversion issue Unicode (Cyrillic) ASCII. It’s funny I have heard those beeps but thought it was just some random electronic sound my computer made (or that I was imagining it) lol.

 

Thanks for reporting it!
