ADS Battery Isolator for Advanced Damage System

This addon extends the Advanced Damage System with a functional battery isolator for motorized vehicles. When a machine is shut down and left idle, the battery can be manually disconnected from the electrical system to prevent unnecessary standby drain. Alternatively, the battery can be automatically isolated after a configurable period of inactivity. While the battery is isolated, the engine cannot be started. Features:

• Functional battery isolator for motorized machines
• Manually disconnect or reconnect the battery
• Optional automatic battery isolation
• Prevents Advanced Damage System standby battery drain
• Engine start blocked while the battery is isolated
• Dedicated battery status icon on the speedometer (Green = connected, Red = isolated)
• Configurable automatic isolation timer
• Isolator state saved with the vehicle
• Multiplayer compatible
• Does not modify or replace Advanced Damage System files

Controls:

• Press B to disconnect / reconnect the battery (keybinding can be changed in settings)
• The engine must be turned off before operating the battery isolator

Automatic Battery Isolation: Toggle on or off via Settings → Battery Isolator. Available timers: Off, 6 Hours, 12 Hours, 24 Hours, 48 Hours, 3 Days, or 7 Days. Automatic isolation does not reconnect the battery on its own – press B to reconnect it before starting the engine. Multiplayer: The battery isolator state is synchronized, allowing the feature to be used on multiplayer servers.
