Events/smoke/FS X

Hi all - I'm trying to nail down something posted on another forum about FS X. Are Multi-pLayer aircraft gone in FS-X? By that I mean did M$ make AI and MP aircraft one and the same?The reason I'm asking is that I want to be able to turn on either an effect or the smoke system of a multi-player's aircraft. Such that you could be online (say VATSIM) with a buddy and see his #3 engine smoking. According to the docs I've read so far, you can turn on effects for AI aircraft - no mention of MP aircraft is made (supposedly this was doable in FS 9 as well, but I never tried it as I'm only interested in MP aircraft).If this is the case, I will finally have my reason to buy FS XThanks.Senior Captain, Pier Glass Aviation
