[FIXED B555] Flares not used against missiles with dual seekers

Post by FlyingBear »

The SS-N-9 Siren has both a radar and and IR seeker. It seems ships equipped with both chaff and flares only use chaff against this missile; flares are not used. This makes the simulation unbalanced; only one side of the dual seeker situation is simulated.

See end game calculations below from a simulated attack from a Charlie II on a Belknap. This time I got lucky, but I have had cases where the ship got hit as a result of this.

Just to verify you have updated to version 1.04 of the game correct?
