Filling from seed tank

Post by vondeylenfarms »

Does anyone have an idea how to fill an auger wagon or such from the placeable seed tank? I like to fill the seeder in the field and tired of using the crates, takes forever! I tried using the belts but no go unless I'm doing it wrong...Thanks for the help!

Pull up beside placeable seed tank with anger wagon and use the refill button L3 on PS4 I think.

Is it possible you accidentally grabbed the wrong container? There is one that's just for beets that's right next to the auger in the store.

The Holmer doesn't fill from parking next to pallets like the others will either - I guess it's the same trigger mechanism for the refill tanks and wasn't coded to work that way. I was using them as seed and fertiliser tanks on my GCV farm but in the end I got tired of tipping 25 pallets to fill them every time and switched to other auger wagons.

The Metaltech auger has no cover yet will autofill from pallets (so I assume it will fill from refill placeables)
