Question for A2A

Post by thunderstreak »

Is FSX still limited to modelling/controlling a maximum of 4 engines?
I was wondering if an accurate model of the B-36 w/ 10 engines would even be possible.

I'm not part of the A2A team, but I can confirm that the 4 engine restriction is still present in FSX.

Not to mention that FSX limits to one engine type per airplane, so no jet/piston mix.

It doesn't mean it's completely impossible to model airplane that has more than 4 engines properly, but it's damn hard and nobody did that before. By properly I mean 'real' engines that generate thrust and use fuel.
