Killing Engines on the DC-8

[luke]

I am adding some functionality to our virtual airline's ACARS package to allow one to start from a "Cold and Dark" cockpit. To enforce this, I am using FSUIPC to kill the engines, avionics and battery.

The latter two are easy to do with FSUIPC offsets, but the engines have me stumped. I am trying to kill them with the KEY_TOGGLE_FUEL_VALVE_ALL FS2004 control. This appears to kill all four engines, but fuel flow levels for engines 2-4 on the pedestal remain forward - only #1 is shut off.

I recognize that the DC-8 panel is somewhat of a legacy product, but does anyone have any knowledge of what control I could use to move all four levers back?

Cheers!

I'm afraid not "LUKE".

As you say, our current DC8 panels are indeed an inherited product. Those originally responsible for creating them (i.e. those in the "KNOW") are no longer actively participating group members
