[FIXED TOOL][1.7.0] Rusting Cars [OLD TEARDOWN]
This mod adds a realistic corrosion and destruction system for vehicles based on weather conditions and vehicle condition. It is designed to increase gameplay realism by introducing dynamic rusting of cars, machinery, and ships under environmental exposure. All systems are performance-optimized and fully compatible with complex vehicle mods.
Exposure Types:
- Water contact — rapid rusting within ~10 seconds when directly touching a water surface
- Snowy weather — moderate rusting over ~5 minutes due to salted snow exposure
- Rainy weather — medium rusting over ~10 minutes from atmospheric moisture
- Open-sky detection — a raycast system checks whether the vehicle is covered
- Ships and watercraft are not affected by corrosion until their condition drops below 30%
- When a ship’s condition falls below 30%, visual hull corrosion begins
- Critically damaged vehicles (below 10% durability) begin rusting automatically, even without weather exposure
- Damaged boats and ships rust in any environment, including on land
Vehicle Rust Behavior:
- Corrosion intensity directly depends on the vehicle’s current condition and damage level
- Vehicles with partially destroyed body panels rust faster than intact ones
- Rust appears first on vulnerable areas such as edges, corners, and damaged surfaces
- Prolonged operation in harsh weather significantly accelerates overall degradation
- Repaired but unprotected surfaces remain vulnerable to renewed corrosion
Anti-Corrosion Tool:
- Multi-mode tool with three functions: protection, protection removal, and painting
- Protection mode (V) — permanent protection against all corrosion types
- Removal mode (M) — removes anti-corrosion coating
- Painting mode (X) — restores and changes surface colors
- Color picker system (RMB) for precise color matching
- Visual outline when applying or removing protection
- Informative on-screen status messages
- Full compatibility with tool animation systems
Visual Effects:
- Black-beige outline when applying anti-corrosion protection
- Black-red outline when removing protection
- Status messages displayed at the top of the screen
- Color-coded feedback: green for success, red for warnings
- Intuitive UI showing current mode and selected color
Features:
- Progressive visual damage with color shifting to rusty brown
- Localized hole generation (1–1.5 voxels) for realistic deterioration
- Gradual durability loss proportional to corrosion level
- Rust particles and destruction effects at critical damage states
- Automatic suspension of corrosion when weather conditions change
- Smart optimization for vehicles with a high number of parts
- Wheels excluded from corrosion for mod compatibility
- Original color memory system for accurate restoration
- English interface for international compatibility
Controls:
- V — switch to corrosion protection mode
- M — switch to protection removal mode
- X — switch to painting mode
- N — switch to rust mode
- LMB — perform current mode action
- RMB — pick color from surface (eyedropper)
