Twin prop light

I've been downloading a lot of twin props like the king air and others.  I would like to simulate an engine failure by turning off one of the mags.  I haven't been able to find that feature.  Can anyone help?

Pressing E then either 1 or 2 in quick succession gives you control over one engine only.  So press E then 1 to gain control of only the left engine, then hold down Ctl and Shift and press 1 to turn it off.  Press E then 2 to gain control of only the right engine.

To control both engines again, press E then 1 then 2 quickly.

If you have a VC, there are sometimes magneto switches on the panel and you can simply click on those instead.  Depends on your chosen plane.

Turboprops dont have Mags.  You have to shut off fuel, to do this press E+1 or 2, then CTRL+SHIFT+F1
