I have a savegame of Farming Simulator with the Westbridge Hills expansion map and on the default field I start with, there are brown streaks of remnants of crop that are not being reset when the field is plowed or cultivated either manually or with a hired worker.
I would say that these are either fertilized remnants of fields that did not get planted or crops that were not harvested before the field got plowed or cultivated for the next field. Either way, the bug is that the hired worker in the tractor with a cultivator or plow attachment will not reset these remnants of fields.
I purchased a product key for FS2015, when this update comes out, does it fix this problem or not? Because if it does not, I require that it be fixed as otherwise Farming Simulator is worthless to me because these remnants of crops are totally random in nature and they reduce the overall yield of a crop. They are also annoying to have to look at! Why did I hire a worker who doesn't remove these for me? I should sack him and not pay him if he did this to me on a real farm!

Re: Bug with remnants of crops not being reset properly.
Maybe you should start with posting a screenshot of the problem and posting your LOG file.
Re: Bug with remnants of crops not being reset properly.
I could do better than that: if I knew where to put it I could send you the actual savegame files themselves! I can try to archive it up and put it on dropbox or some similar file hosting service, but since that will take time for me to figure out properly I'll do that on Friday, because I'm out of town tomorrow.bassaddict wrote:Maybe you should start with posting a screenshot of the problem and posting your LOG file.
Edit: I don't know exactly where Farming Simulator puts it's savegame files, but I do not see any .LOG files to post for your perusal because there certainly aren't any in the folders I can find so far in folders where Farming Simulator shows up in searches. Looks like I'll have to try and identify those as well on Friday and post them along with the file and screenshots you requested.

Re: Bug with remnants of crops not being reset properly.
Those dark spots are just areas where there was no crop foliage to harvest. It is NOT a bug. Just ignore it and carry on. The next time you harvest, they will be gone.
Such a trivial matter makes the game worthless? A little over the top, don't you think?

Re: Bug with remnants of crops not being reset properly.
Those crop remnants are there from 2-3 crops ago. If these remnants were either removable manually or would actually disappear like you claim they would, then I wouldn't have a problem with them. But since they persist over multiple crop cycles and can't be gotten rid of automatically, then yes, it is a very game-breaking problem for me.tater salad wrote:Those dark spots are just areas where there was no crop foliage to harvest.

When I have a definitive answer from Giants Support Staff who can point out how I can remove these remnants myself through normal gameplay I'll stop posting about them. Otherwise, i remain hopeful that they can put a bugfix for this particular bug into a future game update.

Re: Bug with remnants of crops not being reset properly.
Visual model of the plants is spaced out differently than the actual planted area which is saved in the savegame. The dark spot is just fertilized ground which only is removed if a crop is harvested on it. When driving very close to border of the plants while harvesting it's possible that the plants disappear but a small stripe (the dark area) remains due to the random spacing of the visual plants. Cultivating the field removes the invisible crop remnant but not the fertilization. When harvesting the field make sure you have a little overlap to the already harvested area with your cutter.
btw.:
According to the tone of the grass/ground it seems like you have an older version of the titanium addon. The up-to-date version is 1.0.5: http://landwirtschafts-simulator.de/updates.php?lang=en

Re: Bug with remnants of crops not being reset properly.
The other problem is that when harvesting sugar beets or potatoes, in particular, there really isn't a good way to tell where unharvested crops are. Mainly because of the way they blend so well into the field of greenery. I always thought it strange that a single row harvester would dig something up and leave almost identical fresh greens all over the topsoil. Particularly since I've been on potato fields before, and it's pretty obvious where you've been harvesting, if you're using a single-row potato harvester.Heizer wrote:Visual model of the plants is spaced out differently than the actual planted area which is saved in the savegame.

I like realism in a game a lot but some things are just too believable. Plant leaves will quickly change and gradually lose color once ripped up and separated from their product, also, the undersides of stems start to become highly visible. This is getting off the bug report subject but there should be a distinct change on a field if a harvester has gone over the top of it and removed the crop. Maybe they could implement a simple bitmask effect where unharvested crops get highlighted on a field and you simply run over them with the correct implement to finish the job of harvesting them. I don't expect everyone has an eagle eye for harvesting crops anyway.
I also wish Farming Simulator had an automatic updater that simply updates whatever official expansions and addons that are installed on your game and doesn't automatically update third party addons.
Edit: This problem was fixed by planting some crop over the fertilized remnants and then harvesting them. I really need a WAILA (What Am I Looking At) tool in this game, it would come in handy for identifying fertilized remnants like this.
