Mechanics & Car Batteries
Suggestion:
Replace the use of Wires with Car Batteries for internals & make the Car Battery repair 1000 of the electronics. And to make the car battery also accesable at a wholeseller, or craftable (or something until chop gets off the ground again)
Reason:
Ignoring the current issue of mechanics shops not being able to access certain materials to repair internals, the car battery now being used to craft an engine part to give a car 200/1000 repair seems kinda silly.
Mechanics are still unsure of how to acquire car batteries, but, even if they could… say someone’s engine is at 100/1000 - that means they would need 5 engine parts to bring it up to 1000/1000… which means… five car batteries??? If car batteries are coming out of scrapped cars… that’s 5 scrapped cars.
I am suggesting, make car batteries a craftable internals repair using materials we already have: lead, graffite, aluminum, electronics, etc… and have the battery replace the use of wires and make one battery replace the entire electronics life.
Or, have the battery do the same thing, but, still be bought at a local wholeseller, since right now, chop still seems to be a well kept secret. People’s cars are slowly breaking down, including PD’s. Soon, they’ll just start catching on fire from low engine stats. But, that’s besides the point.

I know some of our parts take like 0,5 of some material.
It could also be made so that 1 car battery can make 5 engine parts. that would make it a bit better.
- Yes I know that then you will have to make 5 every time you use one battery, but we go though engine parts so quick anyways that it shouldn’t be an issue. + that would make sense. If the car is 0/1000, you will probably need to replace the battery with 1, not 5.
