Test Flight config - PatPL/Generic-Engines-Web GitHub Wiki

This page is a short overview of different settings in the Test Flight box.

• Enable Test Flight: This is the master setting. If this is turned off, exported engine will not have Test Flight configs. You need to enable this in order to see other options.
• Rated burn time: This setting indicates how long the engine can run without any reliability penalties. If the engine works longer than is rated burn time, its reliability will start dropping, increasing the chance of failure. (Usually you can rather safely push burn time to ~120%-140% of rated burn time, depending on burn time reliability).
• Ignition success chance (0% data): This represents the chance of succesful ignition while having 0du on the engine.
• Ignition success chance (100% data): This represents the chance of succesful ignition while having 10000du on the engine.
• Burn time reliability (0% data): It's used in calculating MTBF. This should represent a chance to complete rated time length burn without failures, while having 0du on the engine.
• Burn time reliability (100% data): It's used in calculating MTBF. This should represent a chance to complete rated time length burn without failures, while having 10000du on the engine.

[Ingame MTBF] = [Rated burn time] / (1 - [Burn time reliability])
