Warping leads to engine failure

[dhasdell]

In several missions using standard CFS RAF and USAAF campaigns, as soon as I warp to next action the engine shuts down and refuses to restart. Is it another XP thing? Sorry if it

[Hagar]

It's possible you ran out of fuel. To confirm this change the Realism settings to Unlimited Fuel & try the same missions.

Thanks for the suggestion. I

I will assume that you warp and arrive at say, 5-10000ft altitude. Your problem is probably that your mixture needs changing. I have posted this before, so you may now it anyway. Shift + 2 for the throttle quadrant, and then drag the red Mixture lever backwards SLOWLY. Your engine should restart, but will flag / die on the way down. Hope I have helped, Dan Garner

OK - I

Great!!  ;)

Try going to "settings" and check the "automix" box.That will automatically adjust air/fuel mix at any altitude any time.

But that isn't so realistic...

Thanks. Using the mixture seems to work - I

Realism is all very well. It would depend if the aircraft has a constant-speed prop. Most WWII aircraft did. I could be wrong but believe they might have some kind of auto-mixture control too. This was to make it easier for the pilot to fly in combat which is surely the whole point.

[dhasdell]

Well, that

I have replyed to your new topic for the scenery!
