F-14 double firing of AIM-9's

[Capn kamikaze]

I'm getting two AIM-9's come off the rails for a single fire command.

What HOTAS do you have? I've found that the X56 has ghost inputs occasionally.

Did you set both 1st stage and 2nd stage to firing the sidewinders?

I'm running a custom stick and my Sidewinders do this too. There isn't even a delay, both fire in sync.

is the custom stick 2 stage trigger as well?

No, sorry should have said. Just single stage. Mapped to the same button as the 2nd stage trigger on the Warthog.

I wonder if trigger pull is being counted as one press and trigger release is being counted as another press. Can you pull the trigger and hold for a few seconds to see if only 1 sidewinder comes off, then release the trigger to see if the other sidewinder comes off as well?

Can't say I have experienced this (VKB MCG Pro , dual stage trigger) and I've been firing some heaters lately in a merge and they come of one at a time but I'll keep an eye on it if it does happen under certain circumtances.

Simple test would be to map the trigger to a different button, or even a key press (turn the key repeat rate way down on your keyboard settings).

DId some testing, if I pop the trigger quick enough one fires off, if I hold it, only 2 ever fire off. So with a load of 4 it fires 1A 8B and or 1B 8A. And they're perfectly synched. So it's not acting like 2 separate press instances.
