Easy Engine Rebuild

Description
Gives the player the ability to increase not only the engine condition, but also the Engine Quality.

How to rebuild an engine:

1. Level your Mechanics skill level high enough to be able to begin repairing the engine.
2. Repair the engine to a condition level of 90% or higher. You can stop at 90%, as rebuilding the engine will increase the condition to 100%.
3. Collect the number of Spare Engine Parts needed to rebuild the engine in your inventory. The tooltip will show you the number, but it is currently 5 * <required Mechanics skill level>.
4. Open the Vehicle Mechanics menu and either right-click on the engine part name in the parts list, or right-click on the engine icon on the vehicle diagram (for modded vehicles this requires the vehicle mod maker to have created a vehicle diagram).
5. Click on "Rebuild Engine".

After rebuilding the engine the Engine Quality will be set to 100, as will the condition. Both Engine Loudness and Engine Horsepower will be updated to match what they would be if the vehicle had spawned with Engine Quality of 100.

Written for and tested in Project Zomboid version 41.53. Any earlier versions are untested.

Hello! Would it be possible to set the skill level in sandbox setting to be able to rebuild?

I feel like level 5 is too easy to be able to rebuild the engines, is there any way I could change this? There's no settings that come up for it as admin.

For anyone looking for similar functionality in B42, I’ve made a fully reimagined mod built from scratch:
Restore Engine Quality [B42] – feel free to give it a try!

It’s not a direct replacement for this one – in fact, it involves more in-game grind to gather all the required materials. But if this mod ever gets updated, you’ll have the freedom to choose whichever version fits your playstyle best.

Special thanks to @PipMagnet for the inspiration!

For anyone who wants this to work for b42, go to the EER_ISVehicleMechanics_AddContextMenu.lua file and on lines 81 and 88 change "InventoryItemFactory.CreateItem" to "ScriptManager.instance:getItem"

Everyone: Yes what I propose is a cheat. Yes it requires launching in debug. But you can use debug mode to right click on motor when in vehicle menu and select "repair part" it will raise the condition to 100 as well as quality. Its all we have right now. I hope this helps.
