fs 2024 Vanilla Turbine Failure With No Blacksquare Failure
-
Here is a post on the Official Forums that seems to be at the intersection of what's being described here. Last post 19 hours ago. If anyone wants to engage, let me know what you can learn. I have already invested a substantial amount of time in this, but I would still rather is be a MSFS 2024 fluke than something I neglected.

@Black-Square So shutting off Airframe damage should solve the issue?
-
Ooh, reading that post linked above, are people who are seeing this on SU4 or the SU5 beta? I cannot contribute a data point because I have aircraft and airframe stress damage off by default, but also despite owning the Caravan since day 1 I have been unable to find flying time this week, so I'm waiting until 1.1 drops next week.

On the last 4 flights, I had 4 engine failures. On the last 2, the engine stress damage in MSFS2024 (SU4) was turned off. The tablet showed no failure at all. In 2 of the 4 cases, I could restart the engine in flight. All 4 flights were done with the passenger variant.

Hi. I'm experiencing the same thing. Random MSFS generated engine failures even though engine says 100%. Frustrating, impossible to do a full flight.

So, I did a couple of flights today. What I have seen is that if u treat the engine with love, wear and tear of msfs diminishes very slowly. At the same rate of other variables. But if u treat it increasingly worse that starts to increase the rate of descend, to the point it diminishes almost to 0 in a few minutes. However the Caravan tablet seems to work differently and damage is almost none. Probably thats what got us confused.

Follow these steps to test please.
Load caravan on the ground cold and dark..
Turn on fs2024 Dev mode, goto Debug/Aircraft/Wear and Tear- Move the wear and tear window to another screen to view..
- Normal startup on caravan, taxi, takeoff, climbout and cruise.
- Note the Turbine engine condition in the fs2024 W&T window decreasing until it gets to zero triggering a catastrophic failure.
Do this test with FS2024 engine and aircraft stress damage off. Is the default fs2024 wear and tear values decreasing?
-
I did try. If u disable aircraft dmg wear and tear numbers dont decrease. If u only disable engine dmg they decrease.
So, with aircraft dmg disabled if u ovestress the engine u see some yellow numbers on the wear and tear. They do decrease engine health on BS EFB and wear and tear green numbers remain at 100.But if u dont disable aircraft dmg wear and tear decreases and can go very high down. But that is not what the BS EFB computes. So u can destroy the engine in wear and tear but not in the BS EFB.
Pay attention that even if numbers dont decrease if u press toggle once u activate the damage and they decrease.
