Hello there
can anyone tell me why it is not possible to use fx. the afterburner f-16 viper, coral F-15 or  into some aircraft, but not in some others ?
I tried to put the lights no. instead of the old ones, and also tried to make new lights no. fx. light.14=3 and so on. but without luck.

hope anyone can help me

and then on another plane the code might be like this

object_find_location_burner
if_burner_exists_at_point_x3,y6,z1_run_script)burner_lights.exe

so it must be custom made for that plane
