Smarter Mechanics [Discontinued]

Description
No more cruel & unusual punishment for amateur mechanics!
Are you sick of destroying your plastic tires? Buy yourself some real American made car parts! Better durability than the leading Chinese garbage guaranteed!
Instruction manuals included!

This mod removes the chance of parts being damaged by 1% randomly when installing/uninstalling anything until mechanic skill level 7, and significantly reduces the likelihood of failing to install parts. Un/installing tires at 0 experience is now 85% successful instead of 65%, for example, which is more realistic.

Currently planned but not working: Reduce the amount of damage to parts when you fail to un/install them due to not being skilled enough to around 1-3% (from 5-10%)

Realistically you're not going to destroy a tire because you slipped on a lug nut.
May add checks in the future to make glass take more damage. Depends on if I can get the game to listen to me or not. I've been trying to make the unfixable parts like the heater fixable and making armored parts but it's proving to be a real pain in the neck.

Well, there is already a heater repair mod from the same guy as I know.

Yea I have been using that one. It works pretty good, but yea doesn't include heaters. I hope they can help you get that figured out ^.^

i reccently saw a mod uploaded that allows you to rebuild an engine to get its quality to 100. i'm hoping that i can learn from the person who made it to make figuring out how to add similar functionality for fixing the heater
