Doing engine static fire in designer gonna be a good addition for the game.
especially for ssto's engines .
How it can be done
- Activate the engine (The throttle gonna be a fixed 100% for max performance)
- Use the slider altitude to see how the engines plumes gonna be both in vacuum and atmospheric condition . But with a condition that the player cant configure the engine during static fire.
- The static fire burn time can be adjusted or fixed time like 10 seconds only or full burn time .
- Another thing is if the rocket have more than 2 engines ( for a normal two stage rocket),we can choose to do either one or all of them for the engines test
There should be a button saying like "Test stand" or something so we can start the engine test (that's the only thing I could came up with(: ....)
And this can also be apply for all type of engines,including jet engines .
yes yes yes
