Throttle response in afterburner #22

Open NathanKell opened 9 years ago

At one point AJE had instant throttle response in afterburner. With the current throttle code however, the region above 2/3 throttle still has delayed response. Which should it be? @camlost2 @blowfishpro

My impression of how real jets work is that they still have response if AB is lit up, but since RPM remains maximum, the response time should be faster. So the current way should be an acceptable approximation.

Ok. We could also temporarily increase response rate when currentThrottle > 2/3 && TT7 > 0....

@NathanKell that could work. Two questions still remain though: (1) What is the afterburner response rate and (2) How is the response rate handled as you cross over the AB threshold?
