Cold starts

In career mode, can the feature where you and your ai flight cold start on the field and in the case of liquid cooled engines, have to warm up before taking off for the front lines? This was a great feature in ROF and it is missing in FC

Yeah it's good hearing the engines start in RoF just one of the reasons I still use it more than FC. I hope the developers will change this sometime.

When you have that option turn on in realism settings it's not applied to campaign?

Btw cocking the guns was also nice realism future but removed from ROF as new players were frustrated why they can't shoot 😅

Not sure about campaign but it is definitely not implemented in career mode. Yeah cocking the guns was nice too. Feels a bit more arcade like without these features. 

I suggest adding the option. It would nice to hear a devs view 🙂

Having warmed engine off is the same for all modes. When you start the engine's always running nothing like RoF where all the planes engines weren't. You can still cock the guns in a sort of way in RoF by pressing reload. It would have been great to have had working ground crew in Flying Circus. One to spin the prop and 2 on the chocks. When they'd finished they could disappear into a hangar. I'm not sure how hard it would be to implement. Not likely to happen now.

I meant in career, so you have that option in realism on and it doesn't work?

Guys, career mode as it's coded right now is what it is, i.e., don't expect any significant changes to be made.
