Cutting engine exhaust flame immediately

13.5k brians1209  4.5 years ago

How can I cut the jet engine exhaust immediately when I reduce the throttle to 0%?
The exhaust decreases very slowly when I reduce power.

    Hey I know this is old, but I found a solution. It’s only cost is reduced exhaust. You make the engine power high and it’s max throttle input low making it function like normal, but with only like 10% rev up time needed depending on how much you change it’s max throttle value.

    you can increase powerScale to counteract that.

    @goboygo1 Ok thanks. But I have one more question: Does input decrease help to decrease fuel consumption?

    Well, its pretty complicated, you can decrease the max input, but that will make the thrust shorter. in some cases you can use VTOL engines, they power down very quick.
