Default SH3 commander malfunctions and sabotage...

Reading another thread got me wondering about this, but has anyone complied a list of malfunctions and sabotage that SH3C simulates?

So far, the only problem i had was on one patrol with my old VIIC (gods rest her soul), my engines couldn't go to ahead flank. Whenever I ordered it they would turn off.

What about the rest of you?

The Crash Dive of doom, had to manually level off. Fuel level dropped, this has happened.

Had the flank thing happen as well.

Had my attack scope refuse to clearly focus, and had my compressed air loose air like a seive.

I was hoping that Hemisent (the creator) would do this for us.

Interresting, attack scope is for the last 3 patrols fuzzy.. no clear picture. Bug?

But it is already getting hard enough in 1942, so no need for that.

The flank speed malfunction can be 'worked around' by setting your speed manually. i.e 15kts.

Hemisent, was never able to get the Torpedo malfunctions to work so they are not part of this mod. Were you in high sea's/bad weather?

A note to all - if you want to remove/repair a malfunction, then all you need do is save & exit and reload via SH3Cmdr. A new set of random malfuctions & sabotage will be applied. You never know, your boat might be fixed or it could have a completely new set of problems.:rotfl:

One of the best mods ever made. IMHO.

Yesterday night I got the attack periscope not able to focus any more and I discovered it when was approaching a convoy (stupid me - I haven't conducted the usuall checks at the start od patrol). Observation periscope was not working to (other unrelated cause).

Patrol results? 1 ship sunk (11k tons, large cargo), 74% hull integrity, batteries damaged, guns destroyed, periscopes destroyed, radio and sonar destroyed. Managed to get back to base after 11 days at sea... Uff.
