I've got a ship with 10 engines, only nine show up. Hardpoints are all correct, number of nozzles in shiparch is set to 10 but only 9 show in game. Wondering if there's a cap on the number of engines you can display. The only FL model with more than 10 that i can see is the Heavy Lifter but depending on how many are coded for use, never seen more than 6. This leads me to think that you can't have more than 9. Any suggestions or workarounds appreciated.

Waste of a post as it seems, i figured it out. Seems it's all to do with how you name the engine hardpoint. I had mine named HpEngine08, HpEngine09, HpEngine10. Seems this is the problem as it should be HpEngine010. Now it's read properly and shows up in game. It might help someone else lol

That does seem weird, doesn't it? What does FL care what number the Hp is as long as it exists and is referenced properly in the loadout and/or shiparch.
Another quirk of the game I guess.

I still come across a lot of FL weirdness even after all this time, this isn't really a surprise but i still find it strange though. At least now they all show up,
