F-16 Startup Procedure In Unreal Engine

[Flight2IC]

Hi,
I am working with f16.xml as my FDM inside unreal engine 5.3, when i launch the game with "Start with engine running = true" everything works fine. But i want to start the engine using standard startup sequence which i am unable to achieve. I have used the following console commands but they didn't work either:

1. systems/electric/battery_switch = 1
2. systems/electric/apu_switch = 1
3. propulsion/engine[0]/starter_cmd = 1
4. fcs/throttle-cmd-norm = 0.1

In unreal engine blueprint setup i also tried setting engine "Running to true", "Starter to true" and "Generator Power to true". After trying different sets of instruction the N1, N2 or RPM stays at 0.

According to the script scripts/f16_test.xml, the procedure is the following:

1. Set propulsion/starter_cmd to 1
2. Wait for propulsion/engine[0]/n2 to reach 15
3. Set propulsion/cutoff_cmd to 0

Extract from the file where the engine startup takes place:

jsbsim/scripts/f16_test.xml

Lines 9 to 23 in 0b99bf8

	<event name="starter">
	<notify/>
	<condition>
	simulation/sim-time-sec >= 0.25
	</condition>
	<set name="propulsion/starter_cmd" value="1"/>
	</event>
	<event>
	<notify/>
	<condition>
	propulsion/engine[0]/n2 >= 15
	</condition>
	<set name="propulsion/cutoff_cmd" value="0"/>
	<set name="fcs/throttle-cmd-norm[0]" value="0.5" action="FG_RAMP" tc ="2"/>
	</event>
