I want to make up separated engine switches, so one engine will start up when i swich selected button and so on, the problem is i dont want any activation groups involved here, since it will take up space of another features that will require activation groups too, i also want to know how to make a custom engine start up, is it possible?
@HuskyDynamics01 Would you know how to do it like this: The Battery, and L/R Eng Fuel, need to stay on, if you shut off just say, APU, then I want the only way of shutting the Battery off by turning it off, and the only way to shut off the L/R Eng Fuel is to shut it off or turn off the engines (separate input under Eng 1/2 Shut off) (that doesn't exist yet) also both inputs will be put into the two green engines, so if you turn off Eng 1/L it will yaw to the left.
Custom switches are pretty simple, actually. Just set the
inputIdof the switch to something (Engine1, for example), and then set the activation group for the engine's throttle input to the same thing. Alternatively, you could set the engine's throttle input to something like(Engine1*0.05)+(Throttle*0.95)to have the engine idle at 5% thrust when the switch is on and throttle is at 0.Custom engine startup is quite a bit more complicated and requires custom variables, so even though I know of a way to do it, I'll let someone more qualified explain that.
