[h2]Hello Car Dealers![/h2]
In today’s full version update, we’re introducing changes that increase gameplay immersion and prepare the game for the upcoming Up 2 You DLC.

From now on, car parts:

• affect vehicle handling,
  
• wear down during use,
  
• take damage in accidents.
  

Mechanical parts breakdown
Brake Discs and Calipers

• Affect braking power and emit warning sounds when it’s time for replacement.
  

Suspension Arm Pins

• Influence vehicle handling in corners and stability on straight roads.
  

Engine

• A damaged engine causes irregular acceleration, power loss, and higher fuel consumption.
  
• At very low durability, the engine may stall.
  
• Issues are signaled by audio cues.
  

Exhaust System

• New visual effect in form of smoke signifying a problem (with exhaust).
  

Clutch

• Affects engine performance and vehicle speed.
  

Radiator

• A damaged radiator produces smoke from under the hood.
  

Battery

• Affects vehicle starting and signals faults with audio cues.
  

Fuses

• Headlight effectiveness decreases as their condition drops.
  

Previously, missing any part prevented the vehicle from starting.
Now, a vehicle will not run only if the following parts are missing or at 0% durability:

• Engine
  
• Exhaust System
  
• Clutch
  
• Radiator
  
• Battery
  

The negative impact of damage on driving begins below 30%.
Below 10%, the effects become much more noticeable.

We added a new UI element:

• Next to the speedometer, a warning bar appears.
  
• Icon alerts are also signaled by sound.
  
• Yellow icon indicates below 30% durability.
  
• Red icon indicates below 10% durability.
  
• Only up to 4 icons are shown to keep the UI clean.
  
• Use the scanner for full vehicle diagnostics.
  

If your vehicle gets damaged while driving:

• you can use the radial menu in the car to select Emergency Repair, which restores the damaged part to 10% durability.
  
• This option works only for vehicles damaged during your own use.
  
• Wrecks and vehicles bought as damaged still require transport via tow dolly or trailer.
  

All changes are quest-safe. Part durability will not decrease if the player cannot yet repair a given part.

Vehicles with special colors, the tow truck, and the transporter are excluded from these changes.

Additionally:

• We lowered vehicle requirements for email offers,
  
• Slightly lowered the threshold for trophies,
  
• The player yard is excluded from damage so you can sell repaired vehicles at full price.
  

As mentioned earlier, these changes lay the foundation for the upcoming DLC.
Soon, new parts will be added that can affect vehicle performance, among other things.
We’ll expand on new parts in upcoming devlogs.
