Failure/realism settings: what does "armed" mean?


Recommended Posts

I'm enjoying the sim a lot, and I'm gradually adding realism features. But I'm not sure I understand the UI for engine failures and the like. There's an option to enable such failures, and then below that another option that can be changed to "armed." What does "armed" mean?

 

Thanks in advance!

I don't use the failure settings but I'd guess that 'armed' means the failure will happen at random, rather than at a user-selected time during the flight.

Yeah, I think I'll go with Tim's answer, although I liked Venus! Armed and watch out for it to happen!

Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!  ✈️
