I don't know whether detailed propeller efficiency is calculated in il2 FM. Someone told me it's only a simple value. It's ridiculous that a propeller a/c simulation game dosn't provide accurate efficiency curve. Simply setting 85% for all of CSP ? No, that's totally unacceptable.
So now you want TD to rewrite the physics modelling because of something that "Someone told" you... ?

If you can provide verifiable evidence that IL-2 is wrong, do so. But bear in mind that even if you do, this is a ten-year-old game, and is hardly likely to undergo a substantial rewrite that would make little practical difference in terms of relative aircraft performance - at lest, from the evidence I've seen so far. IL-2 gets it wrong at high Mach numbers: but this isn't news. It seems to be fairly consistent in the 'wrongness' anyway, so why worry about it...

As for CloD benefiting from the work, do you have any information at all regarding how this entirely new simulation models such things?
