I have been working on a 16 engine B-17G and I can only get the four original engines to start. I don't know what to do, Antother problem is that the game wont allow me to mix parts of planes for example I put 4 Junkers 88 engines on a B-17G and saved it and copied all of that other good stuff and right when the load screen gets to Aircraft it stops, quits, and goes to the desktop. HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!

I did a 8 engined 17 a while ago and what I found was there is a engine limit of about 10.

One of the things you need to get right is that each prop is assigned to the right engine, and I think the engine has to be associatted with the base model somewhere.

When you copy an paste in OPS it will assign a unique name to each of the new parts, props in this case, but the new engines will still have prop1-prop4 assigned.

When you mix parts from planes, you have to copy the shadow also. You can delete the shadow off of the part you copied and it will work that way also. If the shadow is left on the part and you did not copy the shadow, the game will crash when it starts.
