"Out of Order" maintenance items cost half the price they say

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue:

In MSFS 2024 career mode, if you go to repair an individual item of your aircraft (after going into the “Details” of a particular section), that item will have a set cost (call it “X”) to repair, regardless of condition (“Worn”, “To maintain” or “Good”) e.g. for most items in the Electrical System of the Cessna 172, it’s 4519 Cr. The exception to this cost being X is if it is “Out of Order”, in which case the cost is 2X Credits according to the UI. However, if you repair an “Out of Order” item you still only get charged X Credits. So this 2-times multiplier is in the frontend UI but not in the calculation or in the validation since it still lets you repair the item even if your total credits are between X and 2X.

Every time I repair an “Out of Order” maintenance item.

REPRODUCTION STEPS

Please list clear steps you took in order to help our test team reproduce the same issue:

  1. Crash your plane multiple times, like I did
  2. Get a repair checkup from the smug maintenance man
  3. Choose a section of the plane with an exclamation mark next to it (indicates one or more items is Out of Order)
  4. Repair an individual item that is “Out of Order”
  5. Watch as your Credits only go down by half of what it says the cost is

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

Even so … logic dictate the X amount for a particular part repaired should remain as same X amount and not to be added as 2X amount of credit.
Because, regardless of the condition of that part (Good, Worn, To maintain, Out of order) - you still replace with a “new” part.
So the current ( used ) state of that item should not decide the total amount spent when replacing it with a new item.

I am definitely all for the cheaper value being the correct one but for now there is a discrepancy between what is shown and what actually happens
