About This File
Hello
I made this LUA-script for randomly enable the built-in IXEG failures.
The script enables the built-in IXEG failures + engine fire, engine failure and oil pumps.
Have your QRH ready.
Available failures by IXEG.
The script activates when your GroundSpeed is higher then 40 knots.
Settings: (edit the IXEG_Failures.lua)
-- Here you set if the failures should be default enabled or disabled when your starting up X-Plane.
-- Set true to enable failures, false to disable. Default is true. true and false have to be written with lowercase letters.
EnableFailures_WizVar = true
-- Mean time between failures (MTBF) is the predicted elapsed time between inherent failures of a system during operation.
-- Default is MTBF_hours = 20.0. See further down for of a example of MTBF set to 10 hours.
MTBF_hours = 20.0
-- Max simultaneous failures pr session
-- Default is Max_Failures = 2 -- The highest numbers of failures is 27 -- setting above this can crash x-plane
Max_Failures = 2
-- Set the level of failures you want.
-- 1 = Minor failures, 2 = Minor and Major failures, 3 Minor, Major and Critical failures.
FailureSeverity = 3
"ADVANCED OPTIONS"
-- Set 'ImminentFailure' to 1 to enable the imminent failure option. When this option is enabled you can trigger a imminent failure with setting the SERVICE INTERPHONE to ON position on the overhead panel.
-- The SERVICE INTERPHONE will switch back to OFF when a failure is triggered.
-- The 'ImminentFailureMTBF' (in minutes) is the MTBF used when you enable the 'ImminentFailure' and set the SERVICE INTERPHONE to on.
-- Default is 0.
ImminentFailure = 0
-- Default is 5 (in minutes)
ImminentFailureMTBF = 5
The Service Interphone switch
How to enable or disable failures (for the session) with FlywithLua menu.
MTBF:
This graph shows a example how often you can expect a failure when you set the MTBF to 10 hours.
Requirement:
- You need FlyWithLua installed -
XP10: http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/17468-flywithlua-for-xp9-and-xp10/
XP11: http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/35579-flywithlua-for-x-plane-11-and-10-windows-linux-mac-os-x-version/
- Tested on X-Plane 11 with Windows 10.
Installation:
- Simply place the script in [X-Plane]\Resources\plugins\FlyWithLua\Scripts
Logging:
Every failure is logged. You can find the logfile in your X-Plane root folder. The logfile is called IXEG_Failures.log
Here is a sample of the logfile.
Known bugs/limitations:
- None. But please report if you find one

What's New in Version 0.111 See changelog
Released
0.111
- Changed the "Chance of failure" to a MTBF logic.
- Added a new setting, Failure Severity. 1 = Minor failures, 2 = Minor and Major failures, 3 Minor, Major and Critical failures.
0.110
- Made variables and datarefs unique to avoide conflict with other lua scripts.
- You can now enable or disable the script with FlyWithLua menu.
0.109
- You can now only get one type of hydraulic leak pr system. Example: You cannot get a fast leak and then a slow leak on system A.
- You can now only get one type of failure pr engine. Failures available is engine fire or engine failure.
- Bug fix: The same failure will not be triggered twice.
0.108
- Added failures for oil pumps
0.107
- Changed the logging system. Every failure will be logged in [X-Plane]\IXEG_Failures.log
- Fixed the slow leak failure for system B.
- Engine flameout failure is changed with engine failure.
- Removed smoke in cockpit failure
0.106
- Minor update.
0.105- Improved logging to [X-Plane]\Log.txt. You can now see how long since takeoff the failure happend.
- The script will stop when pausing X-Plane. (And continue again when resuming after the pause).
- Minor tweaks.
0.104- When a failure occure it will write the event in the [X-Plane]\Log.txt.
- Some minor tweaks.
