copying parts.
I've copied a part, the original was prop_still FS9 default animation. I changed the copied part to prop_slow. However the renamed part is showing still in the sim. My question is do copied parts inherit the FS animation from the original part?

Re: copying parts.
Yes they do John, at least in FS9. In FSX and P3D, the animation tag doesn't clone.
So, you have two parts called prop_still and prop_slow? Both will show if those are the part names. To trigger the default visibility, the prop needs a number, eg prop0_still and prop0_slow.

Ah thank you John. I thought that was the case, you confirmed by suspicion.
