When flying a multi-engine aircraft (B-24 for example), I know you can shut down a single engine by pressing Shift and 1,2,3 or 4 depending on which engine you want to shut down then pressing E.

My question is after doing this how do you "bind" all the remaining engines together?
My #1 engine goes out. I press Shift 4 & E to shut down the #4 engine. Now when I operate the throttle it is only affecting the #4 engine. How do I get it so the throttle is affecting the #2 & 3 engines only?

What am I missing?

i use shift E to enable ALL engines.

I'll try control E and see if that works too.

Select all engines with CTRL E. Then throttle up. Engine #1 and #4 wont throttle up cause they are damaged/off.

AFAIK theres no way to select more then one engine at a time.

To run the seperate engines on different boost settings, youll have to select them one by one and change setting for each.
