What can I do about this?Įven the example I gave here where I can't even match the power requirements, I'd still only be earning about 90$ profit per engine if you calculate purely based on material cost. They usually require power figures that even when I can match, I arrive at with fuel economy nowhere near the required amount. I always run into this when trying contracts as well. No matter what configuration I choose, when I crank up engine power and size to match requirements, the engines end up being too heavy. In my general contracts I run into the following issues:Įven in the above example where I can pull off the other requirements, I've had to crank the weight modifier to 0, massively reducing potential profits. How can I feasibly unlock those? My company has operated since 1900 and I still don't have the necessary skill. I've seen around the Steam forums that you need to unlock higher cylinder counts to attempt these, but all the cylinder options in the design screens are like, ten points away from my engineering skill. I've set it to direct acting camshaft, chose diesel, pumped the performance and torque sliders to 100, added a supercharger and still it seems my engines are simply too weak for this aircraft, and this was the "easier" contract that paid less, the one I actually wanted to take demanded 175 hp of power. I've taken all the performance enhancing options I'm aware of. They ask for 124 hp but the absolute best I can get is 113. Seeing the length requirements, I decide to run an inline engine with 8 cylinders, which is the best I can design. What am I missing here? I managed to design a tank engine quite well, but right now I was trying to develop my first aircraft engine around 1922 and the design requirements are as follow: The issue is, I never manage to find the correct settings for aircraft and ships, I only succeed at doing vehicle engines. I've been wanting to do a company focused solely on contractor work, whilst it might not be very profitable, I find designing the contract components a fun challenge.
