Description
Desired capability or behavior.
Copied from source code: "temporarily using engine-level additional mass and multiplying by num_engines to get propulsion-level additional mass"
See EngineMiscMass of subsystems/mass/flops_based/misc_engine.py.

Research direction
Start by reading EngineMiscMass in subsystems/mass/flops_based/misc_engine.py and trace how engine-level additional mass is converted to propulsion-level mass. Update the behavior so multi-engine configurations are supported correctly, then verify that the resulting propulsion-level additional mass matches the configured engine count.
