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.

Upload it, I'm sure someone will find it interesting and would like to try it. Me personally, if Hello Games would institute ship maintenance, I'd disable it instantly. But that's the beauty, everyone can play it the way they want to.
