Just wanted to ask if there is an ETA on when the update allowing us leave the grass spread out instead of windrowed will be submitted for console?

It's the same issue on pc and it has to do with an update for fs some time ago that broke that funktion.. So I think it's up to Giants to fix it from there end since the modders haven't found a solution yet. It I'm beginning to think we are out of luck because this issue have been on pc for several months now!

I really just accept the Big M the way it is now. I found that the Vicon/PZ haybob mod works well at tedding the grass and keeping it in a narrow windrow for the baler at the same time. Plus with the Big M being so wide it is a decent sized windrow, not much of a need to merge 2 or more together for it.

Do you use a helper for the grass? I used the trailed lifter and the haybob, but the helper wouldn't turn.

I do it all myself. As for the helper that isn't surprising, they tend to falter a bit when you start adding a bunch of stuff behind a machine that isn't supposed to have anything.

Yeah I don't think you can use helpers for grass work

I have for everything except for using the loading wagon, baler or picker. The helpers don't help on meadows or clearings, unless it is or was an arable field.

You can. And they work brilliantly :biggrin2:
As long as the field you use as a grass meadow is converted from an arable field, workers use all the equipment without any issues.
Because they just recognize the field and operate the machine you give them. They don't care if it is grass or barley.
Mowers, tedders, windrowers. They just don't collect a windrow with a loading wagon or a baler.
Basically anything that can be done within the width of an implement can be done by workers.

In regards to the screens. If you have not noticed yet keep your eye on the top right screen (isoBus) when you connect a trailer or baler to the hitch..
Nice little easter egg...

Wide spreed fix is coming I assure you and I will upload the update the day it is available *thumbsup*
Hey there GtX, I just wanted to ask if there is any development on the update? Thanks :hi:

So when you say "update" :wink2: do you mean to be able to do this?

I have decided it is taking to long, so I have found a solution for PC and Xbox/PS4 to have Wide Spreading.

Our testers are checking all is OK and I will submit to Giants on Monday.
Have a great weekend everyone :hi:

That was exactly what I meant.
Both wide spread and single swath.

Yes both work on the same machine and both feature an effect when working. It is not the perfect way to do it but no errors and it does the job as required.
You are more than welcome with the update also.

I am sorry if I do not always answer here. I am part of so many forums and chat rooms. If anyone has an error or a question though I am available in the Giants Discord most of the time and I do try and check this forum ;-)
