Expanded Item Repair Balance

BlackRabbitMsk want to share his first full-fledged mod. For a long time he could not find use for collapsible parts in the game. In addition, he think it is not logical that the player can repair complex firearms at the love stage of the game. On many servers, he met a mechanic with a change in repair – but not all mods were clear and convenient for him. And finally, he himself began to deal with writing mods and he’s ready to offer his vision of all this mechanics.

ATTENTION! This mod significantly complicates the overall gameplay of the player – not everyone may like it!

P.S. He apologize for any inaccurate wording. He is using google translator to write this description.

The mod only uses server side materials. Useful for online servers.

Available Localization: English, Russian
