Self-Repairing Truck

Description
Purpose

This mod causes your truck and trailer to slowly repair themselves as you drive.

What this mod does

The rate of damage per distance travelled is set to a negative value, causing damage to decrease with distance travelled.
The rate of decrease is 1% damage per 2.5 miles (4km) travelled. This rate is applied equally to each component of your truck.
There is no monetary cost for these repairs.

What this mod doesn't do

The only file altered by this mod is damage_data.sii, which specifies rates of damage. All other game parameters, including repair costs when you visit service, are not altered.
Cargo damage is not decreased or modified in any way. As far as I can tell it is not possible to decrease cargo damage with distance in ATS.

ATS Version Compatibility

Works in v1.38 at time of writing.
Most game updates do not affect this mod. Please comment below if you find that the mod is not working after a game update.

Known Issues

May cause the game to crash or hang if used with External Contracts trailers during World of Trucks events.

@Renegade Dave It never worked for trailers, it's a self-repairing truck mod

Hey this doesn't seem to be working anymore, any time I damage the truck to 100% it only restores to about 80% and launches back up to 100% after. It used to go all the way down to 0% if I drove long enough.

this stopped working on trailers as far as i know, cause it wont restore my trailers

CoRtEx that Is currently for all trailers as far as I know, I think that scs changed how the damage accumulates for trailers and this mod isn't yet updated for that, so yea, for now only the truck repairs

testing this mod in the most recent version of ats (stable build) truck got repaired, the trailer didn't. Is it because I am doing a quick job and I don't own the trailer? Although, if that logic applies then the truck shouldn't get repaired either.
