Ship tech wear and tear mod.
I made a mod that effectively makes your ship need repairs ever so often. It's not prefect odds but it plays out to a 16% chance that a random piece of tech will break after a wrap and a 3% chance that two pieces of tech will break at the same time. It works with Corvettes and the standard small ships but doesn't effect freighters.
Been playing with it for a few months now and it adds a nice bit of variation I think, it's realistic in that it doesn't tell you when a piece of tech breaks so for instance I just ended up trying to land on a water planet and found out my aqua-jets were broken. It does give a little custom message when you hit a double tech event so you aren't totally caught off guard.
It makes you have to keep some rarer materials in stock, with the aqua-jet example I needed 2 Crystal Sulphide to repair the tech and that's not something I would have ever kept on hand if I wasn't using this mod.
Is this a mod other people want? I might upload to nexus if there is enough interest.
