Brudda Posted May 29, 2020 Report Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) Let's say you are in a situation where you are doing a 90 on a freeway but instead of falling off a bridge with your girlfriend in the trunk and dieing, Some fucking ADHD riddled child in his elegy retro crashes into you because he was driving in the opposite lane. So there you are, engine is at zero HP and that fucking child just says "sorry" in a pakistan accent or some shit and then leaves you stranded on the highway now, What do you do? Well call a mechanic and pray to all existing Gods that someone might actually come for you but that won't happend since the chances of a mechanic appearing is about 1/1,000,000 so instead how about you add Engine Repair Kits which will be sold at 24/7 for a decent price (maybe like 3 grand or less) now you might say "well then mechanic will lose one of their main point of existance, to fix your car" and to that i say that i'm not sure how stupid you're supposed to be to not give extra 1k to fully fix the car since in my mind the Engine Repair Kits shouldn't fully fix your engine maybe give it 100 HP but even then here's what you can do. Make the health temporary AKA make it decay so if you use the Engine Repair Kit you will get let's say 100 HP which will start decaying as soon as you start driving which means it forces you to drive to a mechanic for a straight up normal fix and BOOM no more problem with the guess i will fucking wait for 1000 years for a mechanic to show up, so yes that is my suggestion that would well make my life easier and not only mine but a thousand of lives easier.

UKSeanJ Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 +1 Sometimes can be so stupid the amount of times it takes to get a mechanic out just to get your totalled car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vx3r Posted June 1, 2020 Report Share Posted June 1, 2020 -1 Most people won't ICly know how to fix there car so most people would not RP it. This is mainly a IC issue. If you car breaks you call a mechanic you can't magically fix your car 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultra3D Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 +1, With the decline of mechanics in the later hours this could be a filler 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAmTurtle Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 -1 the only way i could see this working is if it was something like bls. You would come to LSC or Bayview for an hour and then you can buy repair kits and use them. it will only do a little but would be enough to get you to LSC or bayview 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justpositivity Posted June 2, 2020 Report Share Posted June 2, 2020 -1 Not all mechanics are road certified and with bayview recently moving up to Paleto, they basically have formed a jurisdiction system where they mainly take calls up north.
