Better Vehicle Repairs

Just a heads up for vanilla changes in B52:

- the lightbar can be repaired with other lightbars. It can not be removed however, and they only add a certain percentage, which seems kinda weird. I don't recall if your mod repaired them at 100% or not, but I do recall the parts required made better sense than a full ligjhtbar

Glove boxes, heaters, brakes, mufflers, tires and suspension remain unchanged.

@UnicormRider123 - IIRC, no this mod does not allow for window repair.

However, you can use a mod called Vehicle Glass Repair by トミー (Tommy) that adds an item that will allow the repair of car windows (as per IRL Masterbond ) and optionally also add a mod called Car Windows by Aragon that will allow car windows to spawn in appropriate loot containers.

dose this repair glass on vehicles?

@wodsde The lightbar repairs one time after that then it just consumes parts. I did notice too that the # of parts needed is proportional. I also added this mod mid-game too so the lightbar might be one of those that requires a "fresh" game to repair right or just a "one-time" repair.

lightbar does not fix anything anymore it just deletes the parts to fix it

@Thanit Sorry, I haven't played the game in a while.

Would it be possible to add the rope and towbar attachment? Would be very nice from you!

@Niko241 How do you edit vehicle mods to make the glove box removable?
Niko241  [author] 6 Aug, 2023 @ 5:41pm 
Yes, you should edit the modified vehicles to make it work.
Krilton 6 Aug, 2023 @ 8:13am 
amending to below: Glove boxes can only be removed from vanilla vehicles.

Is anyone able to remove the glove box?
Jud 22 May, 2023 @ 8:43am 
just loaded it on my server, everything works great, if it does not work it is most likely a problem with conflicting mods,,, fyi, i have 120 mods running on my server, all working fine. be careful which mods to pick and be mindful of loading order. anyways great mod . running great on a save that is 2 months old.

This mod working fine with Vehicle Repair Overhaul?
Urgotopotamus 22 Apr, 2023 @ 2:46pm 
@Krilton For the engine quality to be improved you have to rebuild the engine. In case that was an option you hadn't considered. Not sure what other mods you're running but I run the Easy Engine Rebuild mod and it allows you to rebuild most engines with 15-30 spare engine parts.
Monkey Magic 23 Feb, 2023 @ 6:12am 
You state: "It may require a new game to function properly"

Is this an known issue, or is this an unknown possibility? Coz I checked on an existing save and it appears to be fine - in that removal options appear for glovebox etc, but my char did not have the skill to test

Not sure if this is possible but when repairing the engine can the quality of it be improved along with the condition? Maybe if the condition is say 90 but the quality is 37 then an option to repair which one. Reason being is in the game that I'm playing, i use the mod "'59 Cadillac Miller-Meteor + ECTO-1", mainly for the ecto-1, and every one i find.... it has crappy engine quality. :(

Hi. How can I repair the tires?
slxslippy 22 Mar, 2022 @ 11:41pm 
can trunk be fully repaired to 100%?

Glovebox on modded vehicles doesn't seem to work.
Davetiger 10 Feb, 2022 @ 7:51am 
I am in multiplayer if that matters, I did reload on single to test for other mod conflicts and it worked but when I go back to my multiplayer it doesn't
Niko241  [author] 10 Feb, 2022 @ 2:31am 
I just tested it and it works correctly. I don't know what could be happening to you. Another mod maybe?
Davetiger 8 Feb, 2022 @ 1:45pm 
Same can't repair any of it and had since the start of this save :(
Wiechciu 1 Feb, 2022 @ 3:11am 
How does it work? It seems to not working properly, even on the new save. Can't repair or replace glovebox. Do I need to have some special tools to do that?
懷朔 23 Jan, 2022 @ 12:32am 
Can it work with vehicle chop shop?
KenshiSaan 11 Jan, 2022 @ 1:47pm 
it do not work on game already started i just tested on my server just information
MacGyver 11 Jan, 2022 @ 12:14pm 
The save should be in the dedicated server folder... also it says "It may require a new game to function properly."
KenshiSaan 11 Jan, 2022 @ 11:20am 
i own a dedicated server i dont have any save game :/
Niko241  [author] 11 Jan, 2022 @ 11:13am 
If you can dismount the glove box in a saved game, then everything will work correctly.
KenshiSaan 11 Jan, 2022 @ 11:10am 
anyone tested this on a save game ? interesting ...
