We've got the engine on/off ability

[+ST0RM 145]

When you turn the engine on/off, there is no startup or shutdown sounds. Is it possible to program a key function to actuate those sounds to complete the sequence?

 

Just thinking out loud.

 

Oh yea, is the runway starting position hard coded? With the quick start, the wingman is directly behind you. Is it possible to move him left or right echelon?

Someone did a quicker take offs mod which probably touches on your second question, but as for startup and shutdown sounds I'm not sure, my guess is not.

Sounds must be associated to an event that's been already coded into the game. It is unfortunately, not something that's user moddable.
