Missile Barrage Bug?

[CerebralAbrasion]

I've noticed that when I get a new m7m or bomber, when I use the missile barrage command it fires each salvo a few seconds apart. But after a while the same ship will fire all salvos as 1. It's not bad, I mean having unlimited missiles in a single swarm makes them even more effective, but is this a bug or how it's supposed to be?

it does sound link a bug.

Barrage is supposed to fire it in volleys which is 1 missile from each turret. Obviously if this is flails, then each missile will be multiple warheads.

There should be a delay between each volley, although it might get effected by SETA

You want to know about a real barrage bug? I confirmed it just now.
Barraged Flails (and likely other swarm missiles) only hit with a fraction of their damage power if launched OOS. It's as if only one of the subwarheads of a missile actually hit the target.
Try it. IS, two Flail barrages will bring down 2Gj (like what you'd find on a Carrack) worth of shielding. Launch a Flail barrage on the same target from OOS and you'll need 30 to 40 barrages to knock the shields down! Barrages, not missles.

It is not a barrage bug. Swarm missiles fire one warhead OOS, no matter the command used.
