There are no alternating or filling rules - ticks come in chaotically.
As for alternation, yes, I looked at the log, there are indeed places where there are consecutive ticks with flippers. I'm not sure about the fill-in, though. Piece of log. ALL mode:
As far as I remember, in version 1178 repetitive prices were simply zeroed out. As you can see now, if there is a bid price in the tick, there is also an ask price. That's what I'm wondering. In tick-based algorithms, will it be necessary to leave checks for the presence of prices in the tick or can they be removed now!?
INFO mode:
As you can see, similar. There are no skips. Prices may be repeated in consecutive ticks.
Please copy data from the logbook like this: right click in the logbook -> "View" -> highlight and copy the desired information, then paste as a code into the forum post.
We have to wait for the brokers' servers to be released and updated.
Older servers do not support tick history returns.
Markets opening is coming nearer. Have you already prepared your robots to calculate parameters on tick history?
It's still too early to work with tics. There is no normal access to ticks, and no understanding of how to work with them. It seems that the developers themselves have not yet come to an understanding of how to properly provide ticks.
And again, not to be unfounded. After turning on the terminal this morning - ticks for today are not returned. Only for Friday and earlier. Either the download is disabled now or a bug:

Hole in the tick history. And even those ticks that came in for the current terminal session are not coming back.

Are you sure you have checked everything correctly and exactly on the MetaQuotes-Demo server?
Everything is working fine, just believed it. Here's a request for 20 000 000 ticks for EURUSD: Today's ticks are working fine
Keep in mind that the first request gives back what is in the local history and triggers history paging.
Here I requested 200,0000,000 ticks, got 53,788 ticks right away and the paging process started:
After 2 minutes I requested again and got 5 088 888 ticks and paging goes on in the background:
