Witchdrive engine malfunction

[FunFact]

Hello members - nice to be a part of the community now!

Just a little question:
Is it still possible to force a Witchdrive engine malfunction?
And if: how works it - what ist to be done to force it?

best regards!

Hi

To force a misjump: Start the countdown nornally and do a full pitch up as it gets to zero. If you hit zero at full pitch up you will execute a misjump.

Actually I am wondering why the wichdrive would malfunction on full pitch up. Ok, the alignment of the ship is changing, yada yada. But does it not also change with pitch down or yaw left/right? Only roll would not change the orientation, at least for a well-trimmed ship...

So having that effect just on pitch up feels like a feature artificially builtin by developers of the matrix and now being used by any inhabitant.

It’s purely a matter of pitching upwards/climbing - or is it more a matter of increasing the setting of the Dynamic Response Uridium Injection Dilator to 0.75 which leads to an upwards pitching?

It doesn't feel like, it is exactly what this is.

If memory serves a Manual Misjump can only be triggered with the Pitch Up Keyboard Control. Pitching up with a Joystick will NOT cause a misjump. Unless that has been changed and my memory does NOT serve.
