No engine start.

We fully appreciate the frustration, and we certainly don't want customers to have a product they can't or won't use. We strongly recommend contacting Just Flight Support via the link above, who will be best suited to assist further.
There weren't any changes to the engines, throttles, or any other aircraft systems in the v0.1.1 update, so rolling back to the previous version won't likely make any difference to that behaviour. The changelog for v0.1.1 can be found here: https://support.justflight.com/en/support/solutions/articles/17000152601-f70-f100-professional-changelog

I'm afraid to say that I may have an admission and apology to make! I checked my X56 throttle unit and I'd assigned sliders to Mixture and Propeller controls. I've deleted these and the F70/F100s are starting fine! Maybe other pilots with the same problem could have the same solution?

DelThanks for reporting back! I'll double check things on my side as well.

Had this problem happening again today, now on 0.1.1.
No controls set to prop/mixture/fuel etc -

2020 versions here. Everything was working perfectly until V1.2a and now cannot start engines at all. No fuel bindings or anything remotely similar. Following same checklists as before. Engines die almost immediately if I start flight on runway. Set to TO fails also. Now I just have an expensive unflyable Fokker 100 model. Restarted and restarted and restarted then uninstalled and reinstalled no change, no engines start at all. Opened support ticket…not feeling optimistic. Usually just comes back “we cannot replicate….” Or blame user for other add ons, which I have nothing new just a couple F100 liveries since before while the F100 was working and flying great with those liveries. Still I deleted those and no start. The one and ONLY thing that has actually changed was the update to V1.2a

There were no intentional changes to the engine logic or any control assignments in v1.2a, as it was only a very small update to cover a handful of items noticed post the larger v1.2 update: https://support.justflight.com/en/support/solutions/articles/17000152601-f70-f100-professional-changelog
From my experience, engine start issues that only affect some users are almost always related to a control assignment/hardware conflict.
The easiest way to test that is to temporarily unplug your flight sim hardware from your PC (joysticks, throttle quadrants, etc.) and then try to start the engines using the same method as previously. If the engines start with no hardware plugged in, then that suggests a control assignment conflict, and I recommend checking that FUEL VALVE, STARTER, MIXTURE or PROPELLER assignments are not unknowingly assigned to your hardware.
If that doesn't resolve the issues, then it could be something else, such as another mod/product causing a conflict. In any case, Just Flight Support will be best positioned to offer further assistance.
