HELP

Postby blah » Sun Jan 15, 2006 1:59 pm

So I finished a ferry flight from KBOS to KMHT and I wanted to shut dowm my engines before opening the doors.  I shut them down and when I turned them on again both are at idle  but, I only can control engine one and not engine two...HELP!!!

--- Edit ---

I tried using what microsoft said... "e" and then the engine number... I even watched the movie and tried it with the cheesy face also!  :D

Press 'E', and than quickly select all your engines by pressing numbers 1-4. Don't use the numbers on the numbers/keypad, but use the number keys between your letters and the ESC-F9 keys.

Hope it helps ;)

some of the times i try that proceedure, for some reason, it doesn't work...  ???  when that's the case i find that i have to reload the aircraft...... :P

i have assigned a keyboard shortcut to reload aircraft (you can do this in the assignments screen) and it really solves a LOT of problems of this sort ::)

All of them did not work...i tried reloading the aircraft but i always controled only one engine of the two...and one was always off (thats the one i controlled)...when i start the broken one it works and the good one fails...

Is it possibly that way since i cut off the fuel supply?

Who here watches 24!  LOL... ::) wrong forum i kno

A lot of people here watch 24 ;)

I've never heard of an aircraft reload not working, that's very strange... joystick problems perhaps.

VERY TRUE! way too many commercials...
i have seasons 1-4 on DVD so I'm used to watching as many episodes I want to watch at a time without commercials.
