You need to map control keys for separate engine select.

a screenshot of these "plugs" would be helpful

and when you mean start engines, do you mean your plane's own engines, or the Ratos?

- Abel6669 - 15.07.2009

i mean the actual engines, th RATO's cannot be controlled be us...(thought i didnt know that didn't you Tongue)

- Abel6669 - 15.07.2009

- SAS~CirX - 15.07.2009

what the fizzle???? its all jet planes...i just tried a MiG and it did the same thing...whats going on?????

Abel, maybe it has something to do with the map you are using, or the airfield. I know that the jet planes do not work (engine start) on some of the new maps.
I had a similar problem on a map, i think it was asheshouse' BOF map, but it could have been another.
Which map/airfield are you using in this case?
Try on one of the default maps, and see if the problem persists... :wink:

- Abel6669 - 15.07.2009

im using a default map, "northwest europe". ill try on my other mission i am working on, and see if its just the map (if it is ill be p***ed, i spent almost an hour just doing the runway lights.

- Abel6669 - 15.07.2009

Im p***ed :x

heheh.....well. at least the mystery is solved. Big Grin
don't feel too bad, i was making a template for the Lybia map, and after i had set up telephone poles on all the roads on the whole map, i then lost the misssion due to corrupted files. i don't want to know how many hours that took me.... :?
