Repair your ride
Use varying parts to restore your ride
-start easy changing tires then with seats, have some ductape, sheets, glue, a spring? you can repair it!
-Parts have a lot more uses now, from metal bars and springs to rebuild the suspension, light bulbs for light, fabrics for seats and good old ductape for many minor fixes
-Screws and metal for moderate fixes but progress to using a blow torch and your repairs will be solid!
Salvage of Vehicle and Parts
Salvage parts from one vehicle and use the pieces to repair other parts on other vehicles
Grab your blow torch and mask to break down vehicle parts into useable items!
Salvaging Vehicle parts could provide you with several items in return!
Tear up those old stinky seats and you'll have a chance of gaining those dirty Rags, Leather, Denim or Thread!
Grab your blowtorch and mask, uninstall those beat-up doors and salvage them for a chance of Metal Sheets, Screws, Small Metal Sheets or even Electronical Scrap!
Enjoying those mods that introduce Roof Racks? Well now you can salvage those too!
Each Vehicle part can be salvaged with a chance of gaining up to three salvaged items depending on your Mechanic and Welding skills.
Salvage Vehicle is now included
Right click on a vehicle and choose "Salvage Vehicle"
This option is available once you have Metal Working skill 4 or above, Mechanics skill 3 or above and requires 10 propane units and a Welders Mask. You can salvage all vehicles except Wrecks*.
This option will completely salvage and remove the vehicle clearing the path.
Depending on your Metal Working skill, you will salvage the vehicle faster and receive many useful items the higher your skill.
I do recommend removing as many parts of the vehicle as you can and empty the vehicle before salvage of the vehicle body. This will give you vehicle parts to use, further salvage options for those parts and your character will have gained more knowledge about vehicles and gained more skill XP in Mechanics and Metal Working.
The Vanilla option for *dismantle wreck option is also still available (only for wrecked vehicles), costs less propane and less time but your returns are smaller and less varied with less XP too.
The better you are at Mechanics or Metal Welding will mean your talents will produce better results from the Salvage!
A Mechanic knows the parts he wants, gaining skills in Metal Welding means he can better acquire those parts.
NOTES
You may see possible items in the fix list that you dont have in your game. This is because I have included some items from other mods that can also fix the part on your vehicle. These items are not required.
An example of this is "The Workshop" mod which I highly recommend as it adds Metal Parts and other unique items to the game which are quite useful if your vehicle is damaged and also gives you other dismantling options for many car parts.
Compatibility
Good with everything!! I do not overwrite vanilla code, I create additions so it plays nice with any other mod you want to use.
Suggested workshop items that add to the experience
Many Vehicle mods on the workshop are already supported with this mod !
The list below are some of my favs
Filibuster Rhymes' Used Cars!
fhqwhgads' Vehicle Pack - The Motorious Zone
Tread's Water Tank Trucks
Treads Fuel Types Framework
KI5's Vehicles
Cyt Vehicles
Sharks Vehicles
Crashed Cars
Craft Helper Continued
Why Should I use this mod?
A lot of workshop vehicles now come with additional parts or new created parts, this mod will have them included. (Basically I have to load up every vehicle thats released and check the parts in the code and include anything new into this mod, time consuming but worth it for players who use a lot of the workshop vehicles)
It adds a lot of new options for repairing vehicles too (Vanilla and Workshop), metal bars for suspension, glue and fabrics for seats, options to use screws and metals for minor repairs or blow torch for higher level repairs to name just a few.
The salvage module is overhauled too, depending on your skill levels you can acquire multiple salvaged parts, example of doors giving you sheet metals, electric wire, screws, etc, use them for other repairs or to craft things.
The Mechanic and Metal Working progression system has been fine tuned too, start with smaller repairs or salvage at lower skills and progress as your character improves to using the blow torch for higher level repair options on the more difficult parts. The better your skills the better the repairs will be.
Thanks to
Trealak, DJVirus and all the modders who offer help with code and of course Vehicle creators like filibuster, KI5, fhqwhgad, cyt and shark.
