No Leftover Parts Mod v6

NoLeftoverParts.jpg - width=1240 height=1000

August 19, 2018 Update - Added an optional bugfix add-on for generic trash piles, which by default will always magically leave scroungeable parts behind if they are dropped.
Description
This is a mod for The Sims 4 to remove the leftover "upgrade" parts that are found during a repair action. Sims can buy upgrade parts from the computer -- they aren't expensive, and selling off the huge collection a sim ends up with from normal repairs is a tiresome bother so they just end up cluttering inventory.
Besides, you shouldn't have useable leftover parts -- that is probably why everything breaks so often!
There are two flavors of the mod - You should only install one or the other. One leaves only a pile of broken parts (non-salvageable), the other leaves nothing behind which is cheating and doesn't give the kiddies a trash pile to play in, but I think a lot of Simmers prefer that version.
Installation and Compatibility
Just unzip the package file to your Mods folder as usual.
This mod may cause conflicts with any other mod which changes the repair actions. Due to the wide variety of mods and sources for them, it is unlikely I will be able to help you with such a conflict. If there is a conflict, either one or both mods may fail to work properly, your game may crash, frogs may rain down from the sky...
This mod requires The Sims 4 to be patched to at least version 1.48.94 (December 20, 2018).
Tech Notes
This may be of interest if you are experiencing a conflict and know how to debug such issues, or if you are creating another repair mod and wish to incorporate these changes to eliminate conflicts. If you do create another mod using these changes, I would appreciate receiving credit.
