Amazing mod! Any chance to have a residual value when we sell our trucks? I mean, we can sell them for the same price we bought.

that is ok frezzy.

@kwh, yes I'm aware you cannot use this mod with game version 1.50, that is because I have not updated it to 1.50 yet.

and I am writing from a translator because I don’t know English well

@frezzy, unfortunately that is broken with 1.50 and it'll require some updating I'm not all that familiar with.

After updating your mod to 1.50, can I take the bank interface from you for my mod?

1.5 can not use

@busy_and_broke: Of course. My intention was not to rush anything but just to confirm that something seems off with the quick jobs. I'll be patient! :-)

All, please give me some time to update this mod to the beta for game version 1.50 and to address reported issues. I will need a few days due to my scheduling.
