fixed BDU-33 smoke time

[Notso]

While relatively minor, the amount of time that the smoke from the BDU-33s remain visible is WAAAY too long. In DCS, it lasts for some minutes while IRL its maybe 15-30 secs at best. It literally is a small puff of smoke from a one time smoke charge in the bomb, just enough to see your impact if you roll during the safe escape maneuver or someone spotting it from a tower on the range. The one's in DCS smoke forever as if its a smoke signalling device. Is there any chance of getting this turned down to more realistic times?

A nice new effect would be cool. Main problem with the current standard "DCS" smoke effect is that it will obscure the target when doing a normal range pattern even with only one aircraft.

Example of the BDU-33:

Nice video! Yeah, the current bdu-33 smoke time makes it unusable on a conventional range with a multi ship flight.

Seems fine in the current Open Beta, please recheck and if you still see an issue, share a track.

It was fixed in the last OB

Yup.... It's great now! I've never felt so listened to by ED, lol. I made my post maybe a day or two before it was fixed in the last OB.

Seems like the smoke is back to lasting about 5 minutes, is that how it is intended?

I would hope not.  See my post and the videos above.  IRL, Its a very small short duration puff of spoke.
