Helper "_" has a full grain tank or tank is empty message

Giants, I love the helper message system.The location and color of the font isn't always practical.When I'm harvesting grain the color of the font of the Helper message kinda blends into the crop I'm harvesting.I think it should show up like the Do not drive to deeply into the water message.Or have a horn sound off when their grain tank is full or their fertilizer or seeds are empty.Playing on PS4.Thanks.

Personally I hate the "Do not drive to deeply in to the water" message ... so please do not change it like that!

But a sound when ever there is a message ... could be a solution!
A discreet "blipp blipp" or something like that ...

And while you are at it ... make an option in the game menu to have a "transparent HUD"

...

I can't recommend any solution but I agree that the helper messages must be a bit more conspicuous

I agree I miss them unless I'm looking for them. And even then it's normally on accident.

I'd add a field number to that message. I really have no idea whatsoever who's Hell-per C or Hell-per D.

^^^This, this, so much this!^^^ That would make my farming life better. Also, a HUD disable or hider in the in-game menu.

I've never had an issue with the helper messages. They're small enough to not distract but I usually don't miss them.

I kind of wish the A, B, C, D or something, helper system was changed to have names. I think it would be easier for people to know who they are. It would also be nice if it was the same helper all the time, then you get used to whoever drove your tractor, combine, or whatever tool. It might be unrealistic, but I know it would help me a bunch.

Better idea. When the helper is full/finished/empty they should send you a text message or FB message.Or call you.

Lol like the fs13 mission messages

Didn't play 13. Started on FS15

And I've just thought there was a similar thread to this one.
Which happens to be the same one. LOL!

Still agree with the OP on the message.
It can blend in pretty easly as it is now

Most of the time, helpers are going to have a two-way radio when working out there. I'd love to hear a voice come over the radio: "Boss, This is Charlie, over on two. I could use an unload. Thanks."

I would be happy if the message was persistent whenever there's a helper stoppage or imminent stoppage. The 4 I've noticed are:

-Helper blocked
-Harvester 80% full
-Harvester full
-Helper finished work (Persistent until you cycle to the machine in question)

The messages are helpful, but if I don't happen to be looking up when they occur, I then don't know until I think to have a look at the helper's progress

The persistence should be toggle option for those who would not prefer this.
