Increasing lifetime of mortar illumination rounds

[Tyl3r99 41]

i was amazed when i found out the mortar flare fire support is ****...

they last literally 2 seconds at most and disappear..

is there a way of making them last longer?

I haven't used any ILLUM rounds in the game. However, the burn time on them averages from between 25-40 seconds give or take and depending upon the type of tube/round.

EDIT - I just tested it and they're burning for between 34-40 seconds. I'm guessing the whole 2 seconds statement was a gross exaggeration? :raisebrow:

In my past tests lifetime was acceptable, but provided illumiation was none - just useless, falling slowly light spot on the night sky...
