How to reduce the engine fuel consumption (without adding any extra fuels)?

    Bro, I have similar problems as well, like I used some other smaller engines to improve fuel efficiency in my A340.

    But the problem is that engines accelerate too fast and they produces really boring sounds. @Feanor

    There are multiple ways of doing it but I will only state four ways. Firstly, you can use a lighter fuselage so the thrust to weight is higher. Second, if you can XML, you can set input max to 0.1 while setting engine power to 10 multiplier. The engine will perform like a normal engine but more fuel efficient, add more zeros and the engine will be more efficient. Third, you can use a more efficient engine. Four, you can lessen the drag so the plane can travel faster with less power.

    Use a smaller engine with .xml scaled power. Or just ramp up the power of the normal engine and use less throttle.

    I know how, but I haven't done it in a while. I'll get back to you on this.

    Reduce min="0" max="1" to something like min="0" max="0.5" while increasing powerMultiplier="1"
