Miccara Posted December 10, 2023 Posted December 10, 2023 (edited) I have a multi-player mission I've been using on my server for more than a year. I recently added an additional task for the Mi8s. It is just another destination for the pilot to complete a task. The problem is it seems, random failures have been triggered (to a high degree of failures too), and the Mi8s can never complete the mission due to the failures (80-mile trip). In every attempt to complete the run, I have Main Fuel Tank Failures, Chip Detector, Left engine failures, Rotor Failure, and co-pilot death (why Co-Pilot death is included in random failures I'll never know!). I've changed nothing in the core mission itself and have not, and have never, checked off "Random Failures" in the menu. I submitted a ticket to DCS but they have dropped the issue without resolution. I simply can't understand why this is happening. Can someone tell me where (file), random failures are activated in the operating system file? Maybe I can remove it from there. All help is appreciated. Edited December 10, 2023 by Miccara
Solution Flappie Posted December 22, 2023 Solution Posted December 22, 2023 Hi @Miccara. You're not the first one with unexpected failures in your mission file. We don't know how it happens, but it's quite easy to solve. Here's a small guide: If you have any idea how failures got there, I'm all ears. ---

I still have no idea how random failures got into this mission, especially since it's multiplayer. I thought it was something I did while editing but since this mission, another has shown up with the same problem on my server. This "new problem" mission has not been touched or edited in quite a while. I checked the Mission file and 13001 lines of Random Failures were in it. You got me on this one!
Flappie Posted December 24, 2023 Posted December 24, 2023 Hmm... Maybe a server is able to add these failures to the miz file when it has random failures turned on? ---
