[DCS ISSUE] Mk 20 Rockeye canister not (always) opening

[Stickler]

I'm aware that the Mk 20 Rockeye is currently incorrectly simulated as clearly demonstrated by any 34-1-1 of your preference featuring the Mk 20 and by Karon's extensive testing (The Mk-20 Rockeye Cluster Bomb: Observations – FlyAndWire).

However, until today I assumed that the incorrect simulation was at least consistent, but alas this assumption seems to be unwarranted.

As shown in the attached .acmi featuring two Mk 20 lofts with very similar release parameters and trajectory, the first canister opens while the second does not. No switch settings were changed between the releases.

Can anyone explain the logic?

Is this problem specific to the F-14 or does it affect DCS in general?

Hey Stickler, thank you for the report. This is a DCS issue however, as we use the canister as is, means iirc we do not alter it in any kind of way. If you would be so kind and report it to ED directly, that would be much appreciated!

Thank you!
