Repair/Salvage != to In vehicle status

[savedbygrace]

It's quite perplexing when you're striving to be frugal with your parts and can't figure out which parts are needed to repair a vehicle, just to get it to the next destination without combusting.

 

What I mean, is that the repair/salvage action will reveal differing  status than the in vehicle dialog. For example: Repair action will reveal tires need repair and fuel damage but the in vehicle dialog will be reporting green.

 

Have I been the only one to find this troublesome? Or am I just a boob who is misreading the status?

There is a neat graphical representation used on Sahrani.. or a Sarhani server that I have played on.

Could be looked at or something similar instead of a massive scroll selection have a repair and salvage function on the representation like a menu.

 

Will take screenshot of what I am talking about soon.

This maybe more of an Arma 2 thing as the ingame gui rarely matches the actual recorded damage due to the overall damage a part could be 0% damaged and still show all red on the in vehicle gui.
