Hi
I am trying to mockup a dual-deploy in Rocksim 9. When I edit the 'Flight Events' I select 'first parachute' at apogee.
When I select the second chute, deploy at altitude, I enter a number of feet as requested but the event never occurs.

If I set the second chute for 'time after apogee' I can see the extra drift in 2D simulation.

What am I missing?
Thanks,
Bob

This problem turned out to be the annoying problem for data entry fields. Do I hit enter or not? In this case, the enter key must be pressed after entering an altitude value, otherwise the events screen never accepts the value.
