Spare Engine Parts: Difference between revisions

(I made this edit after discovering Spare Engine Parts spawning naturally in a box in the Muldraugh U-Store it. I have changed the wording from "Do not spawn naturally" to "sparsely appear" as I had never seen it before now indicating it's rarity.)
(Made some clarifications. Still need more specific info (low skill engine repairs, performance vehicle repairs, estimated amount of parts obtained per engine quality at high/low mechanics))

Spare engine parts are used to repair a vehicle's engine. Repairing an engine requires a [[wrench]] and certain [[Skills|mechanics skill]] depending on the [[Vehicles Guide|vehicle type]]: starting at level 4 for standard, level 5 for heavy-duty, and level 6 for sport. To repair an engine, right-click the engine icon and select "Repair Engine", this will use all spare engine parts accessible by the player until the condition reaches 100%. The amount of condition repaired per spare engine part is 1 part per 1% for sport and heavy-duty vehicles, and 1 part per 2% for standard vehicles, however this may vary depending on the player's mechanics skill.

Usage

Spare engine parts are used to repair a vehicle's engine. Repairing an engine requires a wrench and certain mechanics skill depending on the vehicle type: starting at level 4 for standard, level 5 for heavy-duty, and level 6 for sport. To repair an engine, right-click the engine icon and select "Repair Engine", this will use all spare engine parts accessible by the player until the condition reaches 100%. The amount of condition repaired per spare engine part is 1% per part at low level for standard vehicles, up to 4% at 10 mechanics. For sport and heavy-duty vehicles the amount is reduced, with a maximum of 3% at level 10 for heavy-duty.

Distribution

Spare engine parts sparsely appear in the world within car repair shops, and can also be obtained by dismantling a vehicle's engine. However, this requires a mechanics level. A wrench is also needed and will set the engine condition to zero. The number of spare engine parts recovered is random, however is influenced by the player's mechanics level and condition of the engine.
