Will not be changed. Engine model for AI is inherently simpler than that for the player. If we decide to make it more complex, there'll be a domino effect, and in any case there are more apparent game-affecting issues due to this than start-up.

Just assume that AI pilots have thorough mechanics, and yours is a lazy drunk."

Thanks for the community involvement Luthier.

I assume that since it is possible to have an airstart it is at least possible to have a prewarmed up engine for takeoff. Hope they can implement that for the player. Or at least a pause before the other aircraft take off.

It's possible by script at the moment to delay the engine-start of the AI. Of course this is no solution for the average user. An difficulty setting to enable a prewarmed engine should be to difficult.

You can open 2 new tickets for this in the bugtracker if you want it happen.

Personally I think the delay should be a standard feature in campaigns, single player and coops without need to be scripted by hand.

The delay should be depending on aircraft type. E.g. the Blenheim needs longer warmup time than a Spitfire. But back to topic ...

Back to topic - how about someone take it upon themselves to include the known big bugs into the tracker (i.e. missing antialiasing, etc.)?

Maybe it would be better not to clutter the tracker with stuff where we know that is already in the works.

But how do we know?

I don't see the general Flight Model issues listed. I don't see the Memory Leak issue listed. Well we know the patch is supposed to sort the memory leak but shouldn't it be listed? As for the FMs it would be nice to know if its WIP or not being looked at yet.
