📋 About This Mod
Custom Fee Validator
Starting with DV r84, it is not possible to take jobs if the player has an outstanding debt over $5k.
This makes it quite difficult to do jobs back to back, especially when it is not possible to service the current locomotive at the current station.
Fee Validation Schemes
This mod offers a few fee validation schemes to choose from.
This fee validation scheme excludes debts for consumable resources (fuel, sand, etc.) used by locomotives that are part of the same trainset as the player's most-recently used locomotive. If the player has debts for damaged cargo or train cars, locomotive repairs, or owes a large amount in emissions taxes, these must still be paid off to accept a new job.
ExistingLocos
This fee validation scheme excludes all debts (consumables, repairs, etc.) for all locomotives that still exist in the world. If the player has debts for damaged cargo or train cars, these must still be paid off to accept a new job.
Other fee checking policies are possible to implement on request. Suggestions and pull requests are welcome via Github.
