In Spain we are playing a competition where if you want to make a Supply you have to use them over the cities(And you really need to know if they are ON/OFF,they also penalize.)
heheh, funny. I understand. I think I can add this, even if it has a very very small chance of getting out of sync with the game. A general tip: The smoke can be seen from inside the cockpit easily - just look out the window to the left or right and watch behind the wings. The smoke will be there if it is on. Maybe this is practical for you already.

Does it not work properly? You should only need to open setup.exe, click "assign feather prop. 1", click OK, then hold the button you want to assign it to. Then, in the game, each time you press it, it will feather or unfeather the prop of the engine. So far it worked 100% reliable for myself, never any problems.

I just want to disable it and control the Engines individually,that' s why I also set the #Engine1 #Engine2. I think I have to change #All Engines,here it 's useless. Also the individually Pitch,let me a better control over my airplane. I hope you have undertood it
I am trying to understand One thing that I especially do not understand is the last part about "individual pitch".

What part is it you want to disable exactly? The G940 throttles controlling the left/right engines? That is possible to disable. You can edit the mikkonfig.ini and put "no" for throttle 1 and 2 (but you have to do this each time you have used setup.exe, it automatically puts in the correct G940 throttles there). And also unassign prop pitch axis 1 and 2. Then you assign one of the G940 throttles in IL-2 under "HOTAS" to "power" and one to "prop pitch". You will have the reversal bug, but you can fly IL-2 and control the engines like as if you were not using Multi-Throttle 4.0. Meaning you have to select each engines with buttons and move them with the controller assigned to "power". You can still use the individual engine control buttons I think.

If you want to have the dual throttles control the power on left/right engine, but use 1 controller to control the pitch for both engines but individually, this is not possible. Because Multi-Throttle has to use the IL-2 regular control system. To move engine 1, it will check the G940 left throttle, assign it to 'power', then send a command to IL-2 to select the left engine, then send the new 'power' setting. Same for individual prop pitch and any other engines. Each time a new engine is selected, it will recieve the settings that the other engine is using. It cannot remember the setting the engine had from before. To get a feeling for how this feels like, just turn off multi-throttle and set things up without it.

Of course you may already know all these things, and maybe you want it. I explained just in case. I am pretty good with coming up with control solutions/setups by the way. If I understand better exactly what you want to do, I might be able to come up with solutions.
