Prop Strike?

What specifically triggers a prop strike? Is it a contact point in the CFG? If so what does it look like?

I'm trying to add a prop strike to an AC that doesn't have one. I used to know this but my memory fails me.
 
A contact point indeed. This one is from a Bf 109G/K series. Replace X with whatever point number you wish and tweak the values to fit - now the strike point is 7.8 feet ahead of the datum and 5.1 feet below. I bet you could decipher that by yourself but better safe than sorry...

point.X = 2, 7.8, 0, -5.1, 444, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 4
 
also member B, it has to be modeled in.
if there is no bent prop you will just end up with a missing prop and spinner.
 
Thanks Rene & Jon!

Jon, I learned what you taught me before, but I couldn't put my finger on what I was doing wrong this time. It hit me when I saw Rene's post . . . I wasn't adding the minus sign to the vertical position! Everything is on track now.:jump:

I'm such a dumb a** . . . I'm sorry for wasting your time.:173go1:
