Setting up random failures

[Paradox1126]

Hey all.

I'm trying to practice failures but don't know how to set them properly. I set some to on but the failure was happening on the runway before I could even take off.

I would like all failures to have the ability to hit. Thanks for the help.

If using the in game method, enable what you want to possibly occur, arm it and set up the fail times.

There's also an addon available on Flightsim.to called RandFailuresFS2020.

So just to clarify. If I am it and set the fail time to 30 then within 30 mins it will fail? Just want to make sure it's a correct assumption.

Another question: when having an engine fire does the game actually show flames or does it just react to the failure?

Appreciate the response. Thank you.

"Fails In (minutes)" and "To (minutes)" determine the time period where a failure can occur.

If both are the same, the failure will occur at the determined time in minutes. If "Fails In" is 0 and "To" is 60, the failure will occur at some point within 60 minutes of starting the flight.

Don't think the game has any visuals relating to failures unless they are programmed in to the aircraft and I don't believe the default aircraft have that level of effort put in to them.

Awesome and thank you. Kind of what I assumed but didn't have the time to test it out. Appreciate the response
