Mechanic Fixes / Overall Rebuilding The System

So ive submitted this for QNA, but it would be better for Developers to see this ASAP as i know they are actively rebuilding the mechanic system Mechanic Shops - Fully rebuild the system, make parts stick 100% of the time. perhaps some custom colored plates. Black and a color, White and a color Rebuild the invoice system Make it a step by step process to do the vehicle, no click use and it’ll apply everything. perhaps when you click use, if the customer got wheels, you’d have to go get wheels from the rack, 3rd eye it. come back, 3rd eye the car. apply wheels. with paint, 3rd eye the car and paint it. etc Mechanic Shop tablets, instead of tabbing out of the game and making us put stuff in mechanic logs, why not have it integrated within the city, we copy registration. go onto the MDT for Mechanics. We put all the required info like we would normally for an upgrade log. WIP as i have no idea how you would put the invoice screenshot in it, but if yall can find a way it would bring more immersion than tabbing out (this also work for every single business, that uses excel, or something else, PDM, Food Places, etc, a MDT for all places would really help out) Make it so the shop invoices them, maybe on the invoice, since it shows the owner of the car, plate etc, we can have a button that says “Request Payment” in the view area, and it will request the payment via the business app to the owner of the vehicle. Repairing Cars, maybe you have to 3rd eye it with a company toolbox or something, and then it shows a health bar of the car damages (kinda like how in the inventory it shows our injuries) then we repair what is needed, proper animations, welding on doors, replacing spark plugs, etc Have proper animations for the step by step processes, proper sounds. etc Uniforms, Decals of the all company logos. Roadside repairs, maybe having a company tow truck, where we get calls requesting tows. employees go out and get the car, bring it back to respective shop to repair vehicle. Add some sort of gas canisters in mechanic shops, allowing us to also fuel vehicles that get work done. Engine swaps, allowing people to change their engine sounds Have some sort of mechanic perk, as we have none whatsoever after being told we cannot repair our own cars, here is my take: Rework Car wax: In its current state, its pretty trash, and nobody buys it due to how useless it feels, reworking it so it can keep the car cleaner for much longer would help boost sales for mechanic shops, and overall cleaner cars all over the city Skill Progression: Mechanics level up based off the amount of repairs, invoices applied. Levelling up gives you perks like, faster repairs on customers vehicles, as what i said above for the repairing cars, since it will have an animation and do a bar progress thing. maybe make it faster depending on your mechanic level / skill. (Also discounts on parts depending on your level)

Business owner checkups

Im sure there is some type of aspect of this in city already but it seems quite a few high demand business’ have a severe lack of employees and/or presence in those business’. Before i just get a response of just apply then, i would like to say i have and have had no response at all from these companies (i.e PDM, LUX, and Larrys). I see nonstop people looking for a worker to sell them a car and yet there is little to no one able to do so. This leads to my suggestion, there should be some type of requirement, especially for vital business’, of hours worked per week and presence by owners and/ or hiring staff. I have talked with a manager of PDM and he advised that there were over 30 applications for PDM that had not even been viewed by the owner and he did not have the capability to hire people on his own. In my opinion that’s bull shit the city is setup to have independent business that operate on their own, which makes it immersive and fun, but if new players cant even get cars they aren’t going to stay around. I think there should either be a change to how this is controlled/kept in check by sever staff or make the option for people to buy cars without a sales representative to punish the owners of these car sales business’ by losing out on money they could have made by properly running their business.
