Default Malfunctions and Sabotage

I have the malfunctions and sabotage option checked. I'm wondering what type things will occur? I think I've noticed that sometimes, a torpedo tube is out of order or my periscope won't focus.

Are these results? What else may I expect?

I don't use sabotage, just malfunctions. I had the ship's telegraph issue they mention (resetting to STOP for no apparent reason) in my first GWX career. Fun.

If you really want to know, go to your Commander folder and look in the Cfg directory. Open the file 'Randomised events.cfg' and scroll down until you see a section for MALFUNCTION SETTINGS.

There you see all the different types of malfunctions that Commander can add to the game at random. It will take a while to go through them all because each one is accompanied by loads of data that has to do with where/when/how etc. they may appear in the game.

Below that is another section for SABOTAGE OVERLAY which will give you the same info regarding possible types of sabotage you may encounter.

...if life is'nt hard enough anyway. i ran it once and it drove me crazy. maybe i should try it again. its annoying when torps dont arrive or explode en route or just bounce right off. reading the history - it must have been soul destroying - especially Norway.
