Summary0005965: Class field not redefined
DescriptionField "initSpeed" not redefined for new M249 boxes with M995 cartridges and inherits from the "rhs_mag_30Rnd_556x45_M855A1_Stanag" class. At the exit, the bullet velocity is 960 m/s instead of 1024 m/s (specified in CfgAmmo). The speed specified in the magazine config has priority over the entry in the ammunition config.

cfgammo value is typicalSpeed, not initspeed.
All it determines is the velocity where the ammunition's "hit" value peaks. This can be greater than, equal to, or less than initspeed in cfgMagazines.

For example we may configure a particular weapon to fire the same round at a higher muzzle velocity than the cfgMagazines initspeed value (the cfgMagazines initSpeed is standardised for a particular barrel length). As such the round may deal more damage when fired from a certain weapon.

But fair enough, it was indeed an oversight that we did not apply increased initSpeed on the M995 magazine

I assume that you usually use identical values in CfgAmmo and CfgMagazines.
