Changelog

Changes

• Fixed vehicle color handling so selected paint, custom colors, pearlescent, wheel, dashboard, and interior colors are kept more reliably after tuning and restoring vehicles.
• Reworked Stancer saving and loading so stance changes stay synced better, while self-service previews no longer save unpaid changes before checkout.

Highlights

• Stancer persistence was fully stabilized across re-enter, garage outpark, impound retrieval, menu close/reopen, and resource restart.
• Vehicle restore timing and guard flow were cleaned up to stop duplicate overwrite waves and workshop flicker behavior.
• Core runtime systems (Anti-Lag, Nitro, Two-Step, Self-Service pricing, Instant Tuning access) were unified and made more reliable.

Notable Changes

• Stancer persistence overhaul:
  • Added session snapshot + dirty-state handling to prevent transient GTA defaults from overwriting tuned stance.
  • Added immediate debounced save for camber, track width, suspension height, wheel size, and wheel width.
  • Added stronger delayed stance stability checks for suspension/camber/track after restore.
• Persistence stability fixes:
  • Fixed runtime blockers around sanitizePlate and lastKnownStanceByPlate.
  • Fixed local guard scope/order in vehicle persistence to prevent purchase callback instability.
  • Reduced broad reapply storms and duplicate late restore paths.
• Self-Service / Instant Tuning:
  • Public self-service pricing visibility is now controlled by Config.TuningCostProfile.publicUsersSeePrices.
  • Instant tuning now supports global and per-location job restrictions (mechanicOnly, allowedJobs/jobs) with client/server enforcement.
• Two-Step / Anti-Lag / Nitro runtime:
  • Anti-Lag moved to config-driven runtime balancing.
  • Two-Step now includes configurable launch-control behavior and improved trigger consistency.
  • Nitro got live HUD/progress sync improvements, better hide behavior, and stronger config runtime control.

Other Changes

• Reduced repeated paint apply bursts and restore spam in heavy spawn/re-enter windows.
• Improved tuning close behavior so unpaid preview/reset flows do not persist unintended changes.
• Reduced mechanic debug console noise by gating noisy traces behind debug mode.
• Improved diagnostics tyre-item validation to enforce server-authoritative repair item checks.

• Tuning orders are now scoped per workshop, and the vehicle registry now keeps each mechanic business separated correctly.
• Added Kiminaze Advanced Parking integration to avoid duplicate vehicles during stance resets.
• Improved install flows by skipping hood-opening steps on vehicles without a hood and hiding armor tuning on bikes.

Other Changes

• Fixed vehicles becoming chrome, windows breaking unexpectedly, and braking issues on some addon vehicles.
• Fixed stance synchronization for nearby players.

Highlights

• Added an Applied Tuning section to Vehicle Diagnostics App so mechanics can see and set installed tuning back to stock and receive configured install items back.
• Tuning removal now uses the same install workflows as tuning installs, including wheel, brake, suspension, and simple checklist flows.

Highlights

• Refactored custom handling tuning so saved presets apply more reliably and no longer stack repeatedly on normal vehicle entry.
• Persisted tuning is now applied when vehicles spawn, so vehicles can receive saved tuning before the player enters them.
• Added lower-game-build electric vehicle support through Config.ElectricVehicleFallback.models.

Notable Changes

• Added Config.CustomHandlingOptions.overwriteHandling for servers that use another handling editor which resets vehicle handling on every entry.

• Added support for fInitialDragCoeff and nInitialDriveGears in custom handling presets.
• Instant tuning prices now use Config.InstantTuning.priceMultiplier.
• Performance tuning menus now respect the configured maximum upgrade stage from Config.TuningCostProfile.

• Stance suspension height is now re-applied during stance runtime.

Other Changes

• Fixed custom handling baseline capture before saved tuning is applied.
• Fixed wheel damage and wheel theft detach handling so stolen wheels keep theft-specific brick behavior.

Highlights

• Added synced custom xenon colors across players, including re-application when vehicles stream in or players join.
• Added German and French translations.
• Added a tuning menu reset button for stancing so vehicles can be restored to default stance values directly from the UI.

Notable Changes

• Improved stancing persistence when leaving and re-entering vehicles, including wheel size, wheel width, camber, track width, suspension height, and wheel rotation values.
• Improved performance for nitro, anti-lag, two-step, RGB effects, vehicle wear, and general in-vehicle idle loops.
• Nitro now uses keymapping support through Config.Nitro.activationKey, with separate timing controls for active ticks, input checks, local effects, and remote effects.
• Engine hoist props created through the Workshop Creator now spawn and sync more reliably from configured placement points.
• Fixed unwanted neon installs during the order workflow.

Other Changes

• Fixed stance reset behavior in the tuning menu.
• Fixed engine hoist placement in the Workshop Creator flow.
• Cleaned up stancing and nitro runtime logic for better maintainability.

Highlights

• Added paid tuning revenue deposits into the mechanic society account through Config.TuningCostProfile.addRevenueToSociety.
• Added a dedicated vehicle_lights item for light installations, including the item image and tablet/localization labels.
• Neon, drivetrain, and suspension installs now use the workshop lift flow so mechanics must work below the raised vehicle.
• Added client and server mileage exports via GetVehicleMileage.

Notable Changes

• Default tuning install items are now consumed after use through Config.OrderRequiredItems.*.removeAfterUse = true.
• Neon installation pricing is now included in the tuning cost profile.
• Mileage HUD design has been refreshed for a more realistic in-vehicle look.
• Vehicle plate labels now resolve correctly in mechanic state and interaction flows.
• Shared tuning database helper logic was centralized to reduce duplicate server code.

Other Changes

• Fixed a database migration primary-key error for vehicle profiles.
• Fixed fxmanifest warnings.
• Fixed a tablet navigation issue that could leave players stuck in the tablet.
• Removed the unused NPC mechanic example from the default config.

Highlights

• Added the Vehicles App to the mechanic tablet with searchable, paginated vehicle records, linked tuning orders, service history, tags, notes, and gallery image assignment.
• Added automatic database migration support through Config.AutoExecuteQuery.
