@Gamer-Tom @Unctuous Robot Thank you both for reporting the bug. I've found the cause. My fault, just a silly math error for any case where the lightbar condition is 96% or higher. I'll fix it, test the fix, and release the fixed version soon.
Gamertom 21 Jun, 2024 @ 1:55pm 
Yea it was K15's P19A iirc, that may be the reason I guess, but I've been able to repair them to 100% about half the time and the rest caps at 99%.

@Gamer-Tom Was that on a vanilla vehicle or a modded vehicle?
Gamertom 21 Jun, 2024 @ 5:54am 
Idk if it's a bug or not but sometimes I can't repair the lightbar past 99%. It will allow you to keep repairing and wasting resources but won't go to 100 for some reason. It's not like this on all vehicles, just seems random. Otherwise its a good mod.

Aww man, trying to fix up a car to 100% but the lightbar wont go past 99 as I keep repairing it.

criminal that we aren't able to replace a lightbulb/siren in vanilla, essential mod, Thnxs :)
Dennis Rafkin 4 Jun, 2023 @ 9:34am 
This mod and your other one for heaters and gloveboxes are essential in my opinion. I only mod with things I feel you should be able to do in vanilla. Something like this is a no brainer beings we have an electrical skill and find electrical components. Same with the heaters. A master mechanic, metal worker, carpenter, and electrician not being able to figure out how to fix their glove box or light bar? yeah ok lol

Hey fellas I posted an easier configuration of the mod which is in the discussions tab on this mod page, u can find the instructions and what I edited as well, hopefully this will make the mod more appealing.

Getting to Electrical 5 is hard? Lmao. Thanks for this mod. Always wanted to 100% my vehicles.

Shoudl at the very least be lowered the mininum 3 if it still needs level 5 like some comments claim. Level 5 is just straight up "Might as well not use the mod since it's basically pointless" territory, players are better off just uninstalling this and ignoring any damaged light bars at that point.

Still work as advertised, 41.78 MP. Thanks

Everyone in this comments section complaining "why does this require level 5 electrical when most things don't require more than level 1 or 2" should instead be complaining "why are there so few valuable things in the game that require electrical skill". Lightbars are an extremely valuable utility hence why so many people want to be able to repair them. Mod is balanced fine.

yeah requirements are through the roof. change it

Doesn't seem to work? MP 46.68

Multiplayer?
TheWorstHandle 25 Jan, 2022 @ 4:19pm 
Please lower the level for electrical to 1 or 2!
Donald J. Trump 22 Jan, 2022 @ 3:49pm 
Requiring electrical 5 to repair the lightbar is ridiculous. Please consider tuning it down.

Please make this mod easier to use or at least make a separate version in your mod. Be so nice.I'd love to use it on my server, but nobody wants to do the work you are requiring. Want it to be more like other repairs. Your lightbar is more complicated than fixing an engine.

41.61 pls? does it work? also the other 2 repair mods of yours?
Tony 19 Nov, 2021 @ 11:33pm 
Can you make a version that requires electricity level 1, and 1 electronic scrap? For those who don't want to grind the skill and only want to burn!!
schraubafix6 16 Nov, 2021 @ 5:37pm 
Nice mod, i like the idea!
"Impossible Lightbar Repair" would be a more realistic name though ;P
Normally you dont level up electricity above 1, its also very work intensive to plunder the whole area for some radios and lamps which you can disassemble.
I would like the mod even more if there are less skill levels needed and more material instead.
PipMagnet  [author] 1 Sep, 2021 @ 10:19pm 
@MrHrulgin I like the idea of multi-stage crafting, but this mod is meant to be simple and stay similar to Zomboid's built-in vehicle repair system. So I probably won't be looking to add any complexity to this mod. I would like to revisit the vehicle repair system in the future with a more in-depth makeover if The Indie Stone haven't revised it themselves by then, but I'm still learning so that kind of thing is currently beyond my capabilities.
MrHrulgin 27 Aug, 2021 @ 11:13am 
I love it, but it feels easy. Given the lightbar is also a siren, could it be changed to 10% repair per noise maker? That would mean slightly lower scrap cost (7 instead of 8), but require amplifiers and the proper knowledge to make it work.

@RafTar, @RoyaleWithCheese

It's my goal to add some mechanism to be able to repair the currently unrepairabe/unreplaceable things on a vehicle, so heater and glove box are planned. Thank you for the encouragement and kind words.

@RoyaleWithCheese not being able to replace heaters has irritated me for a while... we can learn how to tear out/fix everything but a heater core and a glove box?
RoyaleWithCheese 25 Aug, 2021 @ 5:16pm 
these are great! can we get glove box and heaters?? would be amazing to get 100% cars! great mod I love it!
Spyware006 24 Aug, 2021 @ 7:06am 
nice!
bek 24 Aug, 2021 @ 4:12am 
nice, after so many years! thanks for sharing!
RafTar 23 Aug, 2021 @ 3:34am 
@PipMagnet Yay :steamhappy: Could you still make it possible to repair the heater and the glovebox ^_^
YingSuHuaKai 23 Aug, 2021 @ 3:17am
