Love this mod. How's the b42 port coming along?

Look down a few posts...

thx for reply, so waiting patiently, keep up good work! :)
Btw any chances to second option for salvaging (longer time with new metal cutters, wrenches etc)?

Update in progress, but b42 has massive changes, so it will take some time to get it working again.

Any chances to update to b42? Or permission to reupload or add to modpack with proper credits?

thats a really good mod cuz now i can finally remove those cars from the road but is it possible to lower the salvaging volume and increase the amount of metal scrap, metal pipe AND wires gained cuz it makes no sense how an entire truck could just give 4-9 metal pipes or at least add a sandbox option to be more optimizable i really love this mod dont get me wrong but it could be way better if u made these changes and sorry if i am asking for too much

does it give metalwork skill or mechanics skill?

+1 for adding the ability to use a hack saw. Requiring a lot of energy to be used when using the hacksaw option would be a good balance. it definitely not fun cutting metal with a hacksaw

adding the ability to use a hack saw would be awesome for those doing 10 year later runs or ones with waaaay less resources.. i personally would love to use it in some runs esp like full ruined world runs

Yes, Several years after I made this the developers added the ability to salvage wrecks. But this mod allows you to break down non wrecks, wrecks and burned vehicles. Currently you use a torch but I am considering adding the ability to use a hack saw as well.

Lol, isn't there already a salvage vehicle mechanic?

If you check the update history, you would see that on Dec 28, 2021, I reduced the volume to 25% of the original volume. It made no difference as something in the audio code of the game seems to amplify it for some reason. Never found a work around for it.

Point of fact, the sounds were recorded of me using an actual oxygen-acetylene torch, so the volume level as recorded is real.

Insane that you'll complain about a small percentage of people giving it a rating when people have been consistently asking to have the volume of the blowtorch audio reduced.

@UlfLord

Nope

Has the ear-rape blowtorch sound been removed yet?

hello, i use this mod for quite some time, but just recently found bug, when using some sort of blowtorch mod that provide more units on it, no matter how much units there is, blowtorch uses whole load

@jakor plz tell me whats the name of that mod with adds skill point

Is it intended that claimed vehicles can be salvaged?

In 5 and a half years on the workshop, this mod has had a peak of 256,000 subscribers. In all that time only 843 have bothered to give it a rating.

That being said, I do still plan to update at least one more time (Including sound), but I have to wait for the new version as it is changing the skill system (which this mod uses).

Hey just wanna chime in with the rest about the salvaging sound is extremely loud and sounds broken too, I was done salvaging the vehicle but the sound continued for like 10 more seconds or so

the loud sound helps to keep me awake, thanks

fix ur sound

hi this mod is not working with CarWanna

Yeah holy crap, l o u d

Hi! Is is possible to add an option for setting the volume of the SFX? The sound for propane torch when salvaging seems extremely loud...

Based mod.

Did some testing and it seems you don't get any xp bonuses from read books. Choosing the vanilla "Dismantle Car Wreck" gives almost 13 xp after reading metalworking vol. 1 with no traits, but choosing this mod's "Salvage Vehicle" option only yields 2.25 xp. Salvaging usable vehicles can yield anywhere between 7-13 xp in my testing with or without the book. So unless this mod updates to account for books I would suggest leveling metalworking the vanilla way and saving usable cars for higher levels

AFAIK it still works with modded vehicles

does it work with modded in cars?

it does, thanks ! :)

yes, it should

Does this mod work on already started runs?

it makes it unlimited

I get it. I usually carry several tanks with me when clearing pileups from the roads to lessen the back and forth. I wonder if there is a capacity mod to make the torch hold more.

thxs but the reason i have infinet protain mod is so that i dont spent hours just going back and forwerd to the nerest fuelpumps and my base o make scrap armor

I am working on an addition to this mod that would in fact use no propane, but for different reasons. No offense, but infinite propane seems rather cheesy, I would suggest that you use a mod that increases propane tanks or allows refill at gas stations. (both are out there).

can you make a version that takes no propain torhc fuel becuse i have a mod that adds infinet fuel for torches but it dosent work with this mod still a good mod

Really, i still want to thank you. Im tired of seeing so many cars in the road that i cant drive that just clog the road that i'd like to see away without cheats.

@Dr.Death Yes it does both wrecks and non wrecks and it predates vanilla salvage, I created this mod about 5 years ago. I am considering adding the ability to salvage using a saw.

Just to be clear, as opposed to vanilla removal of wrecks, what this mod does is let you dismantle cars that are not wrecks that you wont be using, right?

Just tested on a dedicated server for 12 hours without restart. Only issue found was context menu not showing if multiple torches in inventory and at least one is empty.

i was able to do this before without a mod but now I cannot dismantle wrecked cars for some reason. when I right click nothing comes up as it would on a sink and such

assuming this mod works now and in MP

@kaollle , if you get an error message, please post in the bug reports discussion. Thanks.

mod works fine but only issue is once in a while salvaging it crash's the game with a random error that pops up

@jakor thanks for updating!!!

It gets broken almost every update and I have not had time to fix it.

I can't seem to get this mod to work. I have a meeting server and even made sure to put this mod first to load. Any siggestions?

Seems propane torches use 10/21 10/18 have like 3 torches can't salvage anymore.
