Hello everyone!

The mod is still in its Beta version. The way to open the RVB menu has changed slightly compared to the FS22 version: now it can only be accessed while sitting in a vehicle.

Vehicles can only be repaired at base vehicle workshop triggers. This was implemented because many players had difficulty using the mod in FS22.

The vehicle's generator recharges the battery only if the engine is running above idle RPM. The battery can also be charged at electric charging stations. Additionally, if the battery level drops to 10% or below, it can be recharged in the vehicle workshop.

This version is strictly for testing purposes, and errors may occur.

Recommended Dependencies (to avoid errors):
- Wind Turbines Charging Station mod (i.e., FS25_electricChargeStation) - by HoT online Team FS25_electricChargeStation
- JCB E-tech Powerpack (i.e., FS25_JCB_Powerpack) - by RossN Mods FS25_JCB_Powerpack

📌Important Notes:

A well-documented bug report helps me find and fix issues faster.
This is not a stable release, but meant for testing and feedback collection.

If you experience excessively fast component wear on a server, it is recommended to shut down the vehicles’ engines before time acceleration or sleeping. If the issue persists after this, please report it.

Thanks for helping improve the mod!🚜

🔀Mod Conflict

If you are using the Real Vehicle Breakdowns (RVB) mod, do not use the:
- FS25_DisableTurnOffMotor - it will prevent the engine temperature from rising

Changelog 0.9.6.4:
- When a vehicle was dirty, the “dirty time” did not reset after washing it.
As a result, when the vehicle became 100% dirty again, overheating occurred immediately. The bug has been fixed.
- github issues#157 – Vehicles automatically turned off after some time while motor is running in idle
- github issues#155 – When vehicle in service, PLayers cant join server

- Moved battery-related functions into a dedicated BatteryManager module.

Changelog 0.9.6.2:

Changelog 0.9.6.0:
- Rethinking Automatic Engine Shutdown Disable Logic
- Rethinking RVB Specialization Exclusion Logic
- If workshop hours are disabled, the finish time is now calculated correctly.
- Own or mobile workshops are always open; inspections, service, or repairs can be started anytime,
but the work duration may slightly increase due to mechanic dispatch time being simulated.
- DescVersion increased
- Added new mod icon

Changelog 0.9.5.9:
- RVB menu optimization
- Keep your vehicle clean! 100% dirt + player-set daily service time = increased wear (engine, thermostat)
- In cold conditions, the usable battery charge decreases, making starting more difficult.
- If the vehicle is not used, the battery loses 3% of its charge per month.
- In the vehicle workshop menu, the status of each vehicle is displayed, indicating whether it is currently under inspection, service, or repair.
The expected duration of the process is also shown.
- If the vehicle has a hood animation, it automatically opens during inspection/service/repair.
- github issues#138 - Conflict with Dashboard Live

Changelog 0.9.5.8:
- MP Bug

Changelog 0.9.5.7:
- Reworked jump-start cable system for more reliable behavior.
The vehicle must be jump-started for 5–15 seconds to start. However, if you turn off the jump-started vehicle and its battery level is still below 10%, it will not start again.
This should now work correctly in multiplayer as well.
- Several functions have been relocated. Hopefully they won’t cause any issues, but extensive testing and feedback are needed.
- The vehicle HUD received a small update. The dashboard icons are now slightly visible even before the engine starts, and their brightness increases when the headlights are switched on.

- Localization files optimized and completed.
- Update - The following vehicles are “excluded” from RVB mode: https://github.com/MathiasHun/FS25_Real_Vehicle_Breakdowns_Beta/issues/114
This is a quick release intended for testing, so you can try it before it is made available to the general public.

- Keep your vehicle clean! 100% dirt + 1 hour of operation = increased wear (engine, thermostat)
