moggel Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Not sure this is related to the plane or the DCS Mission Editor in general so I start here. Please divert me to a different forum if I'm wrong. As I understand the Failures panel in the ME I tick a failure I want to practice (in this example the L ENGINE), set the minimum time before it happens (e.g. 4 minutes) and a time frame for how long after this the failure will happen (e.g. 1 minute - I wanted to practice engine failure while climbing out). I then set a probability (e.g. 100%). With this I'd imagine I'm guaranteed a L ENGINE failure sometime between 4 and 5 minutes. I have tried this several times now with no failure whatsoever. Have I misunderstood how failures work? i7-3930K CPU @ 3.20GHz; 16Gb DDR3; GeForce GTX 1070; Windows 10; TM Warthog HOTAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyman Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 You don't have Immortal, or any other switch that might block failures, in your gameplay options do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lithion Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 I have tried this several times now with no failure whatsoever. Have I misunderstood how failures work? Please check both your Main Menu options menu, as well as the Mission settings, these two tend to conflict.

moggel Posted September 9, 2018 Author Share Posted September 9, 2018 I checked the settings and main "Immortal" setting is OFF. Mission option "Random system failures" 'ENFORCE' value is OFF while the 'VALUE' is dimmed ON. Unless I misinterpret these values they mean that the "Immortal" settings should not prevent my pre-programmed failure and neither would the mission setting. Is that correct? i7-3930K CPU @ 3.20GHz; 16Gb DDR3; GeForce GTX 1070; Windows 10; TM Warthog HOTAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltic_dragon Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 Hey! The failures are not working, it is acknowledged by ED if I am not mistaken and on the "to fix" list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that explains it then. No point spending more time on that feature just yet.
