RPM Showing 0.0 #1236

UE5 JSBSim plugin... engine is running and working, but shows 0 RPM no matter what I do. I would like to have this working to enable an RPM gauge in the cockpit, but I'm scratching my head as to why it always shows 0. |

A custom one built from the Aeromatic form on the JSBSim website. I've combed through the other included aircraft/engine XMLs and everything seems to be correct. |

Oh I forgot, if you're using a turbine engine, those don't have a engine RPM output in JSBSim. It outputs N1 and N2, which are the the percentages of your turbines spools of their normal max operating rpms. So at 100, the turbine spoon is operating at 100% max rpm. You can use those N1 and N2 values for your gauges. |
