Interesting Effect

I just stumbled across an interesting effect if you want to create the look of a wounded bomber for a mission.

You can temporarily add one of these lines to the effects section of the aircraft xdp file.

<Effect Type="Track" EffectName="komet_exhaust_SmokeTrail_1" Location="emitter_eng0_exh_r"/>

or if you want a shorter trail of smoke use

<Effect Type="Track" EffectName="komet_exhaust_SmokeTrail_2" Location="emitter_eng0_exh_r"/>

You may need to adjust the location reference to suit the particular aircraft you're wanting to modify. Having one engine smoking badly on a four engine bomber definitely attracts your attention from a fair distance away.
 
Do we have the p[possibility of adding flames? I am thinking it would make a good ai Lanc or something for night bombing along with the "Screcrow" ac we already have?
