No, if the engine is rotating counterclockwise ignition gets shut off

Would love to see that implemented. Functionality wise not sure if anything beyond the need for flipping the engine rendering so it shows it running backwards (there's already a value for flipping the render of the camshafts intake/exhaust sides)

Why would anything rendering wise need to be changed? All you'd need to do to get an engine running in reverse is flipping the camshafts and getting the ignition timing right

I just made some changes that will allow engines to spin CCW without cutting ignition.
