What map are you playing on? I had debated adding those crops as there are very common but the couple maps I checked with those crops already had them set up for swathing on the map side.

It went into console testing this morning to may drop today but most likely tomorrow or Thursday.

still in PC testing.

it will work with anything the forage "mower" does (Claas Direct Disx 500 or Krone XDisc 620). The map needs to have it set up properly.

I am not going to link right the second, but you are looking for "X3".

Currently I know of the Volvo WIA and International Transtar II (mod by Schultz, not the basegame one)

Good news! I wasn't going to but Giants wants me to so I guess stay tuned lol.

Failed first round, small fixes. Will be sent back in tonight and hopfully through round two with no problems (retest usually comes quicker).

yep, they are on day 3 now but keep in mind they dont usually do testing on the weekend. I suspect to see an update on Monday (either failed with some small fixes or moving on to console testing)

Je n’ai jamais joué avec Manual Attach, mais je vais voir si je peux comprendre pourquoi cela ne fonctionne pas automatiquement.

I have never played with Manual Attach but I will see if I can figure out why it is not automatically working.

Are you using the basegame HM 10-500 KF? Generally that seems that an animation issue on the chippers end which the PTO doesn't control so not really sure what could be happening.

I was debating doing bale loading...first I need to finish the other small things then I might mess around with it.

Could you send me a screenshot on Discord? (username Bbdude)

yeah I noticed that in testing, 99% sure it is something to do with the Mobile PTO since it has a manually adjustable hitch. I need to look into it more 😁

That should be possible, I will add it to the list for the next update!

Cela devrait être possible, je vais l’ajouter à la liste pour la prochaine mise à jour !

Swathing Plus is currently broken for the extra swathed crops (should be working for "mowing" grass with a swather)

This includes not working for rice, do you have the Rice Harvest mod? (this mod also adds rice swathing)

finally went into console testing about an hour ago. So it should be good to go now, might see it by the end of the week.

both are back in testing. Roller was moved to console testing today so that should release soon.

Nothing new here, both still pending retest.

And sure you can send me something on Discord if you'd like; Bbdude is my username (you can find links to my server on my Itch homepage)

Both failed for another small issue found.

Harvesters back in pending, roller will be back in tonight.

Special Harvesters is back in testing round 2. Been a few days so that should be done today or tomorrow and SHOULD pass (then another week-ish to get through console testing).

StegoWR failed its first test last week but has been back in the pending list since Friday.

Failed first round of testing for translations, should pass next next test. Hopfully next week.

Roller is still pending first test.

Adding custom crops to Tractor Swathing is a bit of a problem. If I make the separator productions with custom crop inputs that the user does not have in their savegame then the whole production building will not be loaded into the game.

I am planning to look into a kind of "Tractor Swathing Add-On" as a separate PC only mod that will allow player to choose custom crops to automatically be added to the production buildings but no guarantee that will happen.

Possibly, I need to look into it first as many of the maps that have rye and spelt used the new crops prefab and that prefab now includes set ups for swathing crops as well (I need to ensure if I add it and a map already has it set up that it doesn't have issues.)

An update for Swathing Plus is next on my list (I am currently taking a little break from modding for the holidays).

Still nothing unfortunately.

yep, already on the list to look into. No guarantees but it should be doable.

I have been talking with Mark actually and while he was taking a break, he has been working on some stuff lately and last I heard from him he was planning on remaking QuickBale for 25. I will follow up with him again soon and see.

hey there!

So I am not sure why it would loose product sometimes but I am pretty sure there is nothing I can do about it. All this mod (and my other baler mods) do is have a custom bale data list with increased capacities and "lose when cutting" is not something the game controls by default, it must just be a little quark of how the game works and it gets exaggerated with these extra large capacities.

The weight of the product in the baler I could probably address pretty easily.

the FS22 QuickBale did this, yes. ProBale was not in 22 (I did not make mods in FS22). This is a feature I intentionally did not add so that if the creator of the QuickBale ever remakes it for FS25, it will still have some unique features.

0 news, still in pending.

I had some things come up (I am in the process or moving) so I didn't get as much ad I hoped done this week. Last night I got everything functioning just need to finish up 1 set of decals then translations and mod description and other small bits.

I'm hoping this weekend. Finishing up some of the little bits and details now.

Possibly, I would need to make all the bale textures which isnt too hard. I will probably wait until I have some other updates (including all my balers) since I don't really want to do an update already just for support on 3 or so maps.

Hey there!

I think you are having a mod conflict. I just checked on the latest version and had no issues with the FlexChopper or FlexMower.

always open to ideas and suggestions 😁

Message me on Discord, that's the best way to get in touch with me! Username Bbdude (there's a link on the top of my Itch page to my discord server too).

Alright, just popped in game and was able to confirm it is this "ground type" issue I mentioned. Long story short there are two types of "harvest ready" ground types and for some reason AI mowers (which swathers are technically a mower) will not acknowledge the "_OTHER" ground type. I noticed this when I was making an update for Swathing Plus and assumed it as unique to sorghum and rice since those do not natively support swathing. This looks like a game bug to me so I will report it and see what Giants says.

If you are on PC you can force the ground type to be the regular "HARVEST_READY" using Easy Dev or Power Tools and it will allow AI to work.

Are you able to swath canola with any other swathing mods or the Macdon DLC?

Across all my mods I have noticed AI being picky with specific ground types, but nothing in this mod messes with that. Aee you on a mod map?

yep, that's on my list of options for the first update.

yes they will work with any standard semi truck as well.

Thanks for the heads up, I will look into it!

I initially opted to make the FillType code seperste so people who dont need it arnt forced too (especially if it has adverse performance). I really think there is 0 performance penalty from changing the bits so I am starting to think I will just include it in Swathing +.
