Version 1.3.0

Improved Code
Since releasing this mod, both my programming AND modding skills have vastly increased. As such, I have completely re-written this mod from scratch!

This new version runs in a much more optimized manner, is cleaner, has all the known bugs fixed, and much more!

Quality of Life
I have added many "QoL" features. That is, things that just make using the mod easier. For instance, if you do not have enough Mechanics skill to remove a vehicle's engine, the option will just be red, and indicate why you can't do it, instead of outright not existing.

Sandbox Options
You can now completely customize the mod to your liking using Sandbox Options!
For instance, you can customize the skill levels, as well as materials required to remove and replace engines, repair wrecks, etc.

Debug/Admin detection
You will now be able to repair wrecks, remove hotwires and perform engine swaps regardless of your stats or items, so long as you have Debug or Admin mode on.

Small changes
  • Improved compatibility with other vehicle mods.

Bug fixes
  • Fixed errors when right clicking a trailer.

Engine swapping!
With level 7 mechanics, you will now be able to "remove" the engines of vehicles.
I put it in quotes because it's impossible to actually remove the engine of a vehicle, so I simply set it's condition to zero.
You will then receive an engine item that can be installed in another vehicle.
The engine will change the vehicle's horsepower and engine quality.
This should work with modded vehicles as well!

New magazine!
Added the "Vehicle tricks" magazine that teaches hotwire removal to non automotive engineers.
This magazine will also contain more tricks in the future.

Bug fixes
  • Fixed the "Auto engineer" profession not having the repair recipes.
