They just need to stay up longer

Looks great, just a bit more smoke and less fading speed and that thing is gonna be beast.

I've used AC130 flares as reference, which flares dissapear really fast. On such low altitudes it indeed might be better if it was longer. Flare effect is long but in aircraft *.tweak file it's emit time is reduced because to me it looks better that way.

Thanks for the feedback guys!

nice job I am impressed with all the extra community stuff

The flares could stay alive a tiny bit longer, but that's an easy fix. The effect is pretty cool!

For awesomeness, could you do a video that looks like this?

i dare you devs not to put that in 1.0!

While yes, I think we can all agree a more realistic flare dispersion system dose look much better, we also need to consider its gameplay impact. That amount of flares all popping out and from all thous angles are going to seriously confuse missiles, possibly to the point where evading missiles is just way too easy, which some would say it is already.

Needs gameplay testing to really determine if this is a big factor or not but it is a deciding factor unfortunately.

Keep up the good work spirit
