can not reproduce [OB 2.8.2.35759] Decreasing Repeat (RPT) when editing countermeasure program past 0 causes large integer to appear

[DSplayer]

 Bug: Decreasing Repeat (RPT) when editing countermeasure program past 0 causes large integer to appear when its expected to roll over back to 24.

 

Can I reproduce it 100%: Yes

 

How to reproduce/description:

Step 1: Open the EW page on the F-18

Step 2: Attempt to edit the repeat for a countermeasure program (doesn't matter what mode the ALE-47 is in)

 

Result: The countermeasure repeat interval will overflow into an extremely large integer.

 

DCS Version: Open Beta 2.8.2.35759

 

Mods: None.

Hi, 

for me I can not reproduce. 

Are you sure you have no mods or edits, or tools used to edit the Counter measures? 

thanks

I am sure that I didn’t have any mods, edits, or tools that can be installed to edit countermeasures. 

EDIT: Here is a log and a video for an instance where the RPT overflow happens just in case:

Thanks for the log and video. 

I see you are using some unofficial mods and scripts. 

It maybe worth removing them and running a slow repair. 

I still can not reproduce on my machine sorry.

Ok just checking back it seems like my super old modified F-18 CMDS lua got activated which I hadn't noticed since it didn't break any IC checks (and I forgot what the original CM programs on the 18 looked like). It had a repeat of 0 for Program 1 (which isn't possible normally since 1 for RPT is the lowest it can go) and if you tried to decrease past 0, it would cause that overflow to happen.
