the max driving speed is dependent on the HP of the forage harvester. With Jag 980 you can drive max speed.

Thanks for the reply desperados :hmm:

I did not try with 980 but I’m pretty sure I can use krone x-collect 900-3 on a krone big x 580 at max speed. Same header size on a less powerful forage harvester.

At least I was able to use a couple updates ago. May be that is also changed.

And if that is the case then wouldn’t it be better to indicate which header can be used on which harvester at the shop menu?
Because at the moment for both headers it just says Jaguar which leads to the assumption that both can be used on both harvesters.

this feature is new in FS with platinum, so it will actually just work with Claas Forage Harvester and header. you can use all header on all claas forage harvester but the vmax is different, dependent on working width of the header and HP of the harvester

And this "random/selective realism implementation" makes sense? :smileynew:

But this feature is already implemented for the combine harvesters.
Put a large header on a small combine and you can barely move forward while the header/combine is engaged...even if the header header is lifted up while engaged.

So looks like it is new only to the forage harvesters.

Thank you for the explanation :hi:
But can I ask where is this written in the change log for 1.5.1?
I mean if I hadn’t post a bug report nobody would have known this new feature right?
And still just a handful of people who visited this thread have learned about it.
