Vehicle damage causing interesting vehicle behaviour

I’ve encountered bugs where my tadpole has started spinning on its axis or moving uncontrollably. I get a kick out of trying to bring it back under control rather than reloading the game.

I’d love to see malfunctions like this tied to existing in game mechanics. For example:

• At low damage - A chance of lights turning on and off unexpectedly (particularly exciting if you’re in regions where predators respond to lights).
• At medium damage - A chance that the steering will pull in one direction while moving, meaning you have to either jump out and repair or factor it in with your steering.
• At high damage - a chance of engines engaging while tadpol is left unpiloted.
• If a creature has attached itself to the tadpole: lights dim, or the vehicle begins decending when piloted.

I’d love to hear other ideas for fun malfunction mechanics. Lots of potential for creating memorable gameplay moments in game.
